Can't load required rb

[MikeXu]

I have defined several Classes in different rb files and put the files into the same directory of the plugin fiiles developed before. I use “require” to import the rbs where need, but they cannot be load. why? Is the Path of the required rb Wrong? Please help me.

Most likely the path is indeed not right. Can you extract and post an example snippet of your Ruby, plus describe the specific details of the directories where you placed your new files and old files?

Seconded! And also since it’s likely you will write more than one plugin, each plugin should be sub-wrapped in it’s own sub module of your toplevel module. Change “Author” in the template to your own unique top-level company name, brand name, initials, or online nickname.

REF:

• Sketchup::require
• SketchupExtension#initialize

Is the Path of the required rb Wrong?

We do not know since you did not give us an example of your code.

Require paths are relative to the paths that are held in the $LOAD_PATH array, (which can also be referenced as $:).
