This will not work.
Because inside of RB plugin there is no way keep DLLs.
And REALbasic will NOT copy them for you.
You must do that self.

REALbasic must support creation of packages as this do xcode and
CodeWarrior, then you will be able configure your project once and get your
dream. You see?

Let's think about this, but again, REALbasic is limitation.
I cannot jump over them. Right?

So press REAL to implement auto-PACKAGES.
It is their task.

No problems. I think we will not kill Valentina 1.10
And will keep it on ftp some time for e.g. Classic direction.

In fact during 4 years we have NO NEED to fix anything.
Each new REALBasic version was able work with older plugins.
Right?

And as I see we do not expect from REALBasic revolution here.
They already have change format of plugins a lots.
