I agree, and I agree that this is a good direction for Gnucash to be moving. > Finally, I'm not sure at all where gnc-modules stand.

There was some design thought towards making this possible ... gnc-modules are reference-counted and dlclosed when unreferenced the last time. Of course the unreferencing step is not done by very many of our gnc-modules currently. I don't know enough of the runtime linkage issues to know if it's really possible, but I suspect that it is probably doable with some caveats. It will certainly require cleanups of most of the gnc-modules' load and unload handlers. b.g. _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gnumatic.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
