Hello.

I think you'll need to place your shared library into some folder where linker will be able to find it at runtime (like /usr/lib). /usr/lib/glade/modules is not meant to be used as a location for your libraries, catalog supporting modules should be placed here (and if you don't need any special handling, then you probably don't need anything here).

Thnx for the reply.

according to your suggestion i copy my .so library in /usr/lib and i think it gets the library cos the error is change
now the error is:

Code: (Plaintext)
1 2 3 4	libglade-WARNING: could not find `textView' init function: `glade_module_register_widgets': /usr/lib/libtextView.so: undefined symbol: glade_module_register_widgets

did i make any wrong in my source file?

thanks in advance.

Hi.

What project format and builder are you using? Custom widget insertions differ between libglade and GtkBuilder methods.
