Using external libraries

Libraries defined in one project can be used in other projects.

To create a link to external libraries, right-click on a Group node in the projects view and select Add External Project. A new node is created with the name of the external 4pw file.

When an external project is added, all of its projects, application and libraries are automatically added as children. The child nodes are in grey because they are in read-only mode; they cannot be moved, renamed, and so on. Their properties are also read-only.

It is important to set the dependencies for any application or standard library node that requires the use of this library, using Advanced Properties. The new node, with all its libraries as children, will be shown in the Dependencies property page; check each library that should be linked with the application or standard library.
