Using RB's late binding [soft declares], you could prepare e.g. a Cocoa framework
and call functions of the framework.

With a bit extra work, you might prepare a wrapper, which allows to call any function of a Cococa framework [I'd call it a plugin] though certain intermediate function.

If you speak of RB itself, a GUI app and several console apps might be of help. If console apps support networking - don't know if - you might use sockets to communicate between your master and the 'client plugin apps‘. Although this model wouldn't be suitable for any kind of app, the approach might be of for
certain app types.

Hi Guys,

Just wondering, is there a way to modularize your code in order to bring file sizes down? I'm thinking something like a parent app containing the realbasic framework that then calls smaller compiled apps that contain the compiled code for each module which can then in turn call other modules etc. Would just be a very nice way of keeping update sizes down. I do this with director, where my main projector is just a shell and immediately calls the first (login/ menu) module when it opens. To give you an idea director projectors are around 2.5mb min, and my dcrs (Compiled code) are between 20k and 250k.

Is there any other methods that people use to do this?

Regards,
Deane
