Resources importing about red

[Mario-P]

Update.
I see that proper settings of Referenced libraries -> Paths is Common and Site with path relativeness set to PROJECT. Then when I hover mouse over one of the entries in Path section I can see proper path.

Now I created new directory inside Sites and suite inside this new directory and tried to import resource sire_resource.robot and it is also not possible. I'm guessing something is not ok with importing.

Hi
Indeed RED does not fully support importing resources and var files when those files are imported using parameter in path either declared in the same file or in python file (loclal or global).
It only works using VariableMappings from red.xml in General Tab.
Following suite with res.robot and vars in "folder" subdirectory will PASS but RED shows errors for not known res_kw and ${var_1}.

*** Settings ***
Resource     ${resource}/res.robot
Variables    ${resource}/vars.py
*** Variables ***
${resource}  folder

*** Test Cases ***
t1
   log  ${var_1}
   res_kw
*** Keywords ***

I have created internal Jira as this is an enhancement to work the same as with parametrized path to libs

I'm not sure if we are talking about the same things, so once again with pictures :).

1. I'm creating a RED project (location d:\red_tests).
2. I'm creating common_resource.robot inside with some keywords.
3. I'm putting "./" to pythonpath with relativeness to project in red.xml.
4. I'm creating folder Tests and inside a suite - RED_test_suite.

suite code:

*** Settings ***
Resource          common_resource.robot

*** Test Cases ***
TestCase
    RED test keyword

As you see I have not used any parameters while importing resource and still that resource is not recognized.

So I'm referring to the fact that RED is not recognizing resource files that are already in pythonpath (RIDE deals with that kind of importing).

ok, we talked about different thing, resource resolving from PythonPath should also be added although usage for us is controversial ;) .
I have created another issue in Jira for that.
