[Gambas-user] can i specify a path to my modules or libs please how?

[PICCORO McKAY Lenz]

i dont see documentation about the Component.Load in the wiki about paths!

if i specify

   Component.Load("../../thevendor/mylib:0.0.1")

will search two directoryes up from >   $XDG_DATA_HOME/gambas3/lib/
??

in that case of "inside the project" will work if i use "../../" ?
