problem: I'm using the SparseLinearSolve-function from Developer-area which I make available in all notebooks by putting <<Developer` in my init.m. However, I need this function as well in a self-written Mathematica package. Thus I tried BeginPackage["test`"]; Needs["Developer`"] Begin[`Private`"]; ... and an error-message pops up: "Needs::nocont : Context Developer` was not created when Needs was evaluated" Using 'Get' instead of 'Needs' there is no error message, but: SparseLinearSolve is not available either inside the package. My question: Why not? Any advice is much appreciated. My setup: Mathematica 4.0 (Windows NT) -- Klaus Duellmann E-mail: k.duellmann at uni-mannheim.de
