I would like to check out the ex-bond-issuance refapp ([GitHub - digital-asset/ex-bond-issuance: Reference DAML application demonstrating a bond issuance use case.](https://github.com/digital-asset/ex-bond-issuance)). Some dependencies are supposed to be in the lib-finance library ([GitHub - digital-asset/lib-finance](https://github.com/digital-asset/lib-finance)). I have copied the lib-finance library into the project as instructed in the README. In this way, this import instruction is OK: `import DA.Finance.Types` But other dependencies cannot be found: ```haskell import DA.Finance.Fact.Asset import DA.Finance.Rule.Asset ``` Where are these? Thanks ---

The bond reference app was built against an older version of the Finance Library. It seems the instructions are outdated. @gaborh can you maybe help? ---

I think the README is wrong in its current form. I am fixing it and getting back to you. ---

Or maybe in the /ex-bond-issuance/src/main/daml/DA/RefApps/Bond/Roles/CentralBankRole.daml file these two imports ```haskell import DA.Finance.Fact.Asset import DA.Finance.Rule.Asset ``` should be replaced by one import `import DA.Finance.Asset` ? In the root folder of the lib-finance library, there is an Asset.daml file. ---

According to [this script](https://github.com/digital-asset/ex-bond-issuance/blob/c55e0660435bd91be5cc6f06dcd2503dd196d89b/scripts/getfinlib.py), you should be copying in [this commit](https://github.com/digital-asset/lib-finance/tree/c9284704da890fa08ce96624f51ff997512711c4) from the finance library. Can you try that? ---

As @gaborh mentioned, the README was not up-to-date, apologies for that. A PR is on the way to fix it. In the meantime You can fix this issue by doing any of the following: 1. Option A ```shell mvn clean package ``` 2. Option B ```shell python ./scripts/getfinlib.py 1.1.1 ``` After running one of these you should have the necessary finlib in place, i.e. `target/finlib-master-sdk-1.1.1.dar`. After that you should be able to start app in standalone mode or using `docker-compose up --build`. ---

@georg what do you think is the best way to include the lib-finance library if I wat to create a new project using it? Using this script or copying the folder into my project? ---

I would recommend to check in the DAR and reference that via a relative path in `dependencies` / `data-dependencies`. Then `daml build` works without any extra steps and you also don’t accidentally recompile your dependency which can change the package id and thereby invalidate all references to old templates. ---

Yep, what @cocreature said. For now best is to check out the `lib-finance` repo, compile once, and check in the DAR into your repo. We’re working towards being able to pull this in in a nicer way. ---
