Sure, that is easily explainable. TheIDE uses the Core from MyApps, which is broken.

That is the principle of assemblies - if on package requires another, assembly nests are scanned from the left. So in this case, scan starts in MyApps, then goes to uppsrc. Note that such scenario allows you to e.g. develop "experimental" Core, while keeping original uppsrc packages.

Sorry for confusing you by that "export" feature, it was intended for another purpose...

Deleting all the ex- and reimported "base" packages in MyApps did the job!

Thank you very much for your explanation. I think I understand now. Unfortunately I haven't found this issue in the documentation.

But there are still 2 questions:

1.
What other purpose is / was "Export" intended for?

2.
What about the "Find file with underscore" issue?

There are a lot of files in uppsrc which contain underscores - headers and sources. If I ignore the header files, there remain 4 source files. 1 is found by "Find file", the other 3 not, namely:

OL_Set.cpp in Core: yes
util_td.cpp in Sql: no
path_aux.cpp in Geom\Draw: no
calc_idl.cpp in Ole\Ctrl\Calc: no

Does that make sense and, if so, what sense?
