Thanks for answer. I seen other answers explaining what is a circular dependency more or less with similar words, but it doesn't explains the reason at all, see, I mean that what is the bad thing about trying to have Project A depending on Project B and viceverse?. Why this cannot be compiled? what is the exact reason of this problem?.

@ElektroStudios If your question is "Why can't I have a circular dependency?" rather than "What is a circular dependency and how can I solve it?", you might want to edit your question to make that clear.

@ElektroStudios because, as the name states, circular depedency is circular, so a compiler has no way to tell which project goes first. Philosphically speaking, it would be asking a computer who came first, the egg or the chicken ?

@Blackwood "What is a circular dependency" implies a necessary explanation of what reason it causes a error/mistake related with the compiler, that explanation was not gave in the answer, but I didn't asked a different question neither unrelated, do you really think it deserves to publish another additional thread to explain a circular dependency?, sure then we can introduce a new modal of QA ...in fascicles. Common, much people like you can find any reason to discuss for every little thing.The worst thing is that something else thinks is a good idea to upvote. SuperPeanut thanks for explain.
