@Senthilkumar-karthikeyan Then it should just work. Are you sure you're looking in the correct directory?

@jsulm yes i am looking in the correct directory. For testing i add another .so file in the same location i am able to see that file but i am unable to see TDMSLib.so file alone.

Check its access rights - does your user have at least read access?

@jsulm yes access rights is read and write.
@Senthilkumar-karthikeyan Maybe that lib is not compatible? Like 32bit vs. 64bit?

@jsulm i tried the library in both 32 bit and 64 bit machine i found the issue in both.

Seems like that the nameFilters for Linux libraries is "lib*.so;lib*.a".
So the dialog will only show those files with a "lib" prefix by default.@Bonnie Thank you very much what you said is right
