Well, actually the project is not a project :-), it is just a test composed of 
one form, one button and this sub:

PUBLIC SUB Button1_Click()

   DIM s AS Settings

   s = NEW Settings("/home/piero/prova.ini")

   message(s["Test/Chiave1"])

END

The prova.ini file looks simply like this:

[Test]
Chiave1=pippo

That's it! :-)

Upon launching the program and pushing button1, Gambas stops, highlights the 
line s = NEW Settings("/home/piero/prova.ini") and issues the error message as 
per above.

What might be useful to know is this other test I've made.
I've disabled the gb.settings component in this same project and added the 
Settings.class file directly to the project itself.
After making a couple of necessary changes to it (the Main.ToString/FromString 
thing), everything works fine, no problem at all.

Thanks,
Piero
