Title: Project dependencies: How do I include a header from a dpeneded on project.
Post by: indigo0086 on January 25, 2008, 05:18:30 pm

I have project A which is a small dll library that I'm using in project B.  I have project b set so that it depends on A.

When I try to #include "A.h" into my project it says it cannot find it (No such file or directory).  I thought when you set the dependency it does all the inclusion directories for you

They are in a directory structure as follows

Main Workspace folder
 |_A
     |_A.h, A.cpp
 |_B
     |_B.cpp

What the dependencies do is recompiling B if the binary of A has changed.

What you want to do to solve your problem is to add A's include directory to B's project.

If that's a problem, I can always change my post count to 4000 :)
