Compiler Exclude Lib

There are times when compilation halts because of a 'clash' with a lib, especially User Libs. For example, a function of identical name. This can happen if you have developed some apps using the lib, and later others using the lib's source code. It's not so straightforward to change all your apps so that they are all singing from the same song book as invariably there are always other things involved. So, a compiler option to specifically exclude a lib would be a nice solution. Perhaps someone is going to tell me that this can already be done?

@IdeasVacuum,

If you are using gnozal's jaPBe instead of the standard PB IDE, he has a PureLib Manager tool.
It allows you to easily enable and disable user libraries to avoid the conflicts between library functions and source code.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work in the PB IDE. :(

Regards,
Eric

hmm I use it with the PB-IDE and I can easily enable/disable Userlibs with it....

That's good news! Gnozal's website makes it sound like it works only with jaPBe.

Pure Lib Manager is a real gem - hats off to Gnozal! 8)
