--- Code: ---the variable name libxml

BASE:C:\Users\MyComputer\Desktop\Libxml2\libxml2-2.9.3-win32-x86_64
INCLUDE:C:\Users\MyComputer\Desktop\Libxml2\libxml2-2.9.3-win32-x86_64
LIB:C:\Users\MyComputer\Desktop\Libxml2\libxml2-2.9.3-win32-x86_64

and my build options menu:
compiler tab  $(#libxml.include)
linker tab      $(#libxml.lib)

and include directive
#include <libxml\libxml2\libxml\xmlmemory.h>

--- End code ---

The above will result in
$(#libxml.lib) being "C:\Users\MyComputer\Desktop\Libxml2\libxml2-2.9.3-win32-x86_64"
$(#libxml.include) being "C:\Users\MyComputer\Desktop\Libxml2\libxml2-2.9.3-win32-x86_64"

What you likely would want is

--- Code: ---BASE:C:\Users\MyComputer\Desktop\Libxml2\libxml2-2.9.3-win32-x86_64
INCLUDE:
LIB:

--- End code ---

Which will result in
$(#libxml.lib) being "C:\Users\MyComputer\Desktop\Libxml2\libxml2-2.9.3-win32-x86_64\lib"
$(#libxml.include) being "C:\Users\MyComputer\Desktop\Libxml2\libxml2-2.9.3-win32-x86_64\include"

Edit: And most software would include include <libxml\xmlmemory.h> or <xmlmemory.h> instead of <libxml\libxml2\libxml\xmlmemory.h>

Edit2: The slash was wrong! And most software would include <libxml/xmlmemory.h> or <xmlmemory.h>

Well, it seems I'm just not going to understand this because that doesn't work for me either. shrug.

If you learn to read and understand the CB build log you likely will be able to figure it out!
NOTE: Just looking at build messages you will never figure it out.
