If you are talking about QNX projects, the kind of project (application 
vs library) is completely defined by this particular  project 
sub-directores structure. For example, if project has one of the 
following structures:
proj-->nto-->x86-->so            or        proj-->x86-->so
                          |-->so-g                                   
|---->so.g

and if this project was identified as a QNX project (see <natures> 
section of .project file), IDE recognizes it as a shared object project 
targeted to x86 platform having debug and release variants of build.
I tried to play around with project import in IDE 4.0.1 and IDE 4.5 
(Tau) and din't get anything like described by you in your earlier 
messages.  Could it be that you missed there some details of the whole  
process? I don't know...
