Where to put bi files

Post by rnbas »

I am working on Debian Stable Linux and I have installed fltk using instructions on this page: viewtopic.php?t=24547

I used this command to install the .so files: sudo cp libflt-c*.so /usr/lib

I then kept .bi files in /usr/local/include/freebasic/fltk

Code: Select all

dio@debian:/usr/local/include/freebasic/fltk$ ls -sl
total 380
  4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root staff    846 Jul 25 10:01 fltk-c.bi
  8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root staff   7490 Jul 25 10:01 fltk-gl.bi
 24 -rw-r--r-- 1 root staff  22511 Jul 25 10:01 fltk-glut.bi
328 -rw-r--r-- 1 root staff 334727 Jul 25 10:01 fltk-main.bi
 16 -rw-r--r-- 1 root staff  14406 Jul 25 10:01 fltk-tools.bi
However, fbc is not able to find the .bi files. I have to keep them in my source (current) directory for them to be found by fbc.

There are may bi files in include folder and subfolders:

Code: Select all

dio@debian:/usr/local/include/freebasic$ ll

Re: Where to put bi files

I would guess, when you put them in a subfolder you must in your program write this

Code: Select all

#include once "fltk/fltk-c.bi"

Yes, it worked with "fltk/fltk-c.bi".
Thanks.
