Library search paths and keeping projects tidy.

[philpem]

I'm working on a fairly large project where I have several operating executables and a bunch of system shared libraries.

Ideally what I'd like is to have the project structured a bit like this:

v1.23
  lib
    libc.so.1
    libuclibc.so
    ...
  bin
    mainapp
    atetest
    provisioning

Unfortunately if I have this structure, when I import the applications, Ghidra doesn't seem to be able to find the libraries in the "lib" subfolder.

Instead for things to work, Ghidra insists the application executables be in the same directory (in the project) as the libraries. This makes it hard to find the relevant executables.

Is there any way I can structure the project more like I want, with the libraries separate from the executables for ease of browsing?

There is a loader option that lets you select the library search folder from the project. It has a ... button.

Thanks @ryanmkurtz - that's just what I needed!

And for the programs I already imported which needed this updating -- File -> Load Libraries and hit OK. If you set the project path, it'll import the libraries.
