[erlang-questions] linking modules from other directories

[Беляев Дмитрий]

This helps to one library to be used in different projects instead of copying it.

Often I create “proj/Emakefile” with something like this:
{"src/*", [debug_info, {outdir, "ebin"}]}.
{"deps/*/src/*", [debug_info, {outdir, "ebin"}]}.

I start shell with current directory in project root. Then I have compile project with “erl –make” and start application with command like “erl –pa ebin”.
Generally I have all erl files located in src without any subfolders.

I'd recommend you make directory "proj/deps" and make symlink "proj/deps/util".

ok and what is symlink ??
Then you can setup compilation options to compile "proj/deps/util/*" to "proj/ebin".
can you give me some small ex - I cant find anything useful on ggl.

but then all my files will go into ebin dir??
