Hi guys, I have been away from Julia since end of 2018. Now coming back and looking at my old code now with Julia 1.7, I feel puzzled at how best to use my own modules. My modules are in subdirectories under the root directory of my project. Like: ./A/ModuleA.jl ./B/ModuleB.jl ModuleB uses Mo…

Is it too difficult a question please?

The definitions clash because you are using them via the LOAD_PATH and the include. Use one or the other

If I don’t list the subdirectories in LOAD_PATH and just have include(“…/A/ModuleA.jl”) in ModuleB.jl, then when I do include(“B/ModuleB.jl”) in root directory, I get error: ERROR: LoadError: ArgumentError: Package ModuleA not found in current path

You either have to do julia> push!(LOAD_PATH, "./A") julia> push!(LOAD_PATH, "./B") julia> using ModuleA [ Info: Precompiling A [top-level] julia> using ModuleB [ Info: Precompiling B [top-level] or $ mkdir A/src && mv A/ModuleA.jl A/src/ $ mkdir B/src && mv B/ModuleB.jl B/src/ # had a typo (fix…

[image] lawless-m: mkdir B/src && mv B/ModuleB.jl A/src/ Is A/src/ supposed to be B/src/ ?

I was actually using your first approach. It works at REPL, but my problem was in VSCode I can’t goto definition in ModuleB.jl. So I added include(“…/A/ModuleA.jl”) there and VSCode works, but then I got the warning of conflict identities. I tried your second approach with a src subdirectory unde…

OK, this time with includes and testing in VSCode #== matt@fort:~/discourse$ find . | sort . ./A ./A/A.jl ./B ./B/B.jl ./main.jl ==# include("A/A.jl") include("B/B.jl") using .A using .B [image]

My issue is since B.jl uses A, in B.jl I need to have: include(“…/A/A.jl”) using A … The above satisfies VSCode for getting to the definition. But then in REPL when I do: using B Julia complains about the conflicts. Like: WARNING: using A.A in module B conflicts with an existing identifier

The use of multiple includes is what’s causing the problem. You could try this where they are all in the same source file [image] Getting ERROR: LoadError: UndefVarError: Environment not defined when I try to use the modules I created New to Julia Judicious use of import…
