Probbaly I misread some lines.
The solution for this is to create wrapper lib inside contrib HBQT named hbqscintilla which depends on 3rd party lib qscintilla, and where the latter remains hosted in its original location (not in Harbour SVN, due to its size, maintenance needs and even potential licensing issues). One alternative is to place HBQSCINTILLA right inside contrib instead of having it inside HBQT. [ As I wrote in a previous e-mail, which went pbly unnoticed. ] Any other solution is wrong for one reason or another. The only part which casts a shadow on all this is the fact that QSCINTILLA doesn't seem to have a proper binary (either .dll or static lib) based distribution, which makes the whole process much more painful than with existing dependency cases. But, this isn't a Harbour problem, so it's not our objective to solve it. Again: These are Harbour rules, so in case HBIDE is hosted anywhere else, you have the freedom to solve it in any ways you see fit.
