Problem executing a program

[Ulf Wiger (AL/EAB)]

I don't know exactly how ecc is built, but on my machine,
it works with erlc, but not with ecc.

The ecc compiler uses stand-alone erlang, which is built
using only (basically) erts, kernel & stdlib. The include_lib
directive assumes that the application refered to is in the
path. As erlc starts a normal erlang VM, it is able to find
all standard erlang applications, including megaco.

All this is conjecture (well, after peeking at ecc.erl et al.)
The gurus at the OTP team may step in and correct me.

Solution to the problem: don't use -include_lib for megaco,
but instead -include("megaco.hrl"), and then pass on a -I
option to ecc.
