Suppose a folder structure in a C++ project with an include directory with header files,a src directory with .cpp files and the makefile. Lets assume header.h lives in /include,I want to be able to #include the header above without the ./include/ part. In my makefile I can add a -I./include flag,but my current problem is that (On VS Code) Clang complains about a pp_file_not_found,even though when compiling everything works fine. I am looking for either
- Supressing this error
- Somehow telling clang that
/include/should be searched for headers
What's the workaround for using my header.h like #include "header.h" in a situation like this?
Structure
-include
-header.h
-src
main.cpp
makefile
Header.h :
#ifndef HEADER_H
#define HEADER_H
#include <iostream>
void foo(int a) { std::cout << a << '\n'; }
#endif // HEADER_H
main.cpp
#include "header.h" // 'header.h' file not foundclang(pp_file_not_found)
int main() {
foo(5);
return 0;
}
makefile
all: main.o
clang++ main.o
main.o: main.cpp ../include/header.h
clang++ -c main.cpp -I../include
