I’m confused about the External Library feature.
I’m using OSX 10.8.3 and Glider v 1.9.15
I’ve read the introduction to the feature on https://docs.google.com/document/d/1n3zMH2Zc9CTOMRFz5-jRyk7A_cfv2qoHRKC88U7ZM7Q/edit
Are there specific requirements for the content of the external library folders? Or should it work for any arbitrary folder full of lua files? Do I need to do something special in my project after I’ve set up the External Library? Does it only work for folders located in a specific area?
Here is what I’m seeing:
Right click on the project in the projects view.
Click “Set Configuration” -> Customize…
Click on the default configuration, and click “Edit” on the right
Click Add Library
Click on the “File View” tab
(Here is one strange part… the folder dropdown is auto-populated with my home folder, but the folder window is empty. I can click the “go up one folder” button and then expand my home folder to see all the folders it contains)
Navigate to a folder containing lua files
Click “OK”
Click “OK” on the “Configuration Properties” window (the subfolder column is empty and the “active” box is checked)
Click “OK” on the “Configuration” window (the “default” configuration is checked as “Active”)
Now, if I navigate back to the “Configuration Properties” window, the external library is gone!
Am I missing a step?
