Hi Mircea, - About the library: You can either install the sqlite library close to the VM or, as mac is a unix, in /usr/lib. I have for example mine in here:
/usr/lib/libsqlite3.dylib The VM loads the libraries dinamically, so putting the library in one of those locations should IIRC by default look at those places. - about the db file: do you already have a db file you want to open? Usually the db file is next to the image again IIRC ^^. What you can actually try is opening an unexistent database, what will create a new file for you. That will give you an idea of where the database file should be placed. Hope that helps, Guille El Mon Jan 19 2015 at 9:54:56 AM, Mircea S. <mir...@unom.ro> escribió: > Forgot to mention I want to use a *relative path* if at all possible. > > > > Pe 19 ian. 2015, la 00:46, Mircea S. <mir...@unom.ro> a scris: > > Hello everyone, > > I was looking into NBSQLite3 using the guide on smalltalkhub, pasted it > below. > > 1.
