adding include path

[lane]

Hello, I am trying to add a file that has a bunch of .h files inside, so I went to the project settings --> compiler tab --> Include Paths. I then put the C:\"path to .h files".
When I try to #include any from the list, it doesn't acknowledge that there is a directory or file called that. I am using TDM-GCC-32. any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks,
lane

Sorry about that!

Is the file Polygon.h exists under C:/ox ?
How did you include it in your code?

Note that this is not a CodeLite related issue, its basic C/C++

Yes! Polygon.h is inside C:/ox .

my code for including the file is:

Code: Select all

#include "Polygon.h"

[eranif]

Can you print the content of the directory C:\ox ?

I don't think that I can..There are many Header files inside. When I go to their properties they are .hpp files. Then, when I tried to include it I tried:

Code: Select all

#include "Polygon.hpp"

That yielded me with an error that says:

Code: Select all

It also opened up Polygon.hpp , but all that was in there was #include "Polygon.h" .

This may just be a general c++ problem, as you said Eran. If you know of any resources that could teach me about using header files that I did not make, I think it will be a bit more productive.

C:/ox/Polygon.hpp:1:21: fatal error: Polygon.h: No such file or directory

The compiler *finds* Plolygon.hpp but it can not find included from within this file "Polygon.h"
Does this file exist under c:\ox ?

I'm not understanding:

Does this file exist under c:\ox ?

When you say that, do you mean, go to C:/ox and look if there is a header file called Polygon? If so, yes. I go to C:/ox and find Polygon.

Do you find Polygon.h or Polygon.hpp or both?
