The compiler? Are you sure that all the paths are properly set up? –Bart Mar 17 '12 at 21:31 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 16 down vote accepted You need to check your project settings, under C++, check include directories and make sure it points to where GameEngine.h resides, the other issue could be that GameEngine.h is not in your source file folder or in any include directory and resides in a different folder relative to your project folder. For instance you have 2 projects ProjectA and ProjectB, if you are including GameEngine.h in some source/header file in ProjectA then to include it properly, assuming that ProjectB is in the same parent folder do this: include "../ProjectB/GameEngine.h" This

Error C1083: Cannot Open Include File:
you, helping each other. Join them; it only takes a minute: Sign up Visual Studio 2012 Error: Cannot open source file up vote 0 down vote favorite I have source code (header and source files)of a library. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9753887/error-cannot-open-source-file I need to include the source code in my existing project. For that purpose i have copied the entire library source code directory into visual studio project folder then i included that directory to VS by using include to project option. Fine. There is a header file say "x.h" in the library source code directory which defines some macros, and there are some other header files say "y.h" and "z.h" which are using those macros http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27567311/visual-studio-2012-error-cannot-open-source-file defined in "x.h". But visual studio is not recognising those macros at all when i included those ("y.h" and "z.h") header files in my main class. Visual Studio generates the error "Cannot open this source file". Actually "y.h" and "z.h" can not find macros defined in "x.h". How to solve this error? Is there some kind of setting need in the project properties? My second question is that how to include some programming files in my project correctly so that i can use that library functionality correctly? I have also Include the header directories in configuration properties > VC++ Diectories > Include Directories. Third question is that is there a way in which i don't have to include the source code to my project? remember i don't have .lib file or .dll file of that library and i cannot compile that library also. c++ visual-studio-2010 visual-studio visual-studio-2012 macros share|improve this question edited Dec 19 '14 at 13:45 asked Dec 19 '14 at 13:39 Ahsan 4219 1 Have you add #include

Join them; it only takes a minute: Sign up Cannot open include file, with visual studio up vote 5 down vote favorite I have recently gone from codeblocks to Visual Studio, and in codeBlocks one could just add a class and then include it straight away. However, whenever I do cannot open source the same in Visual Vtudio with the following statement: #include "includedFile.h" or #include "include/includedFile.h" It doesn't work and instead I get the error: cannot open include file: 'includedFile.h'; no such file or directory. Is there some box or setting that I have to tick? Or do I have to add each header as a dependency manually? Here is the code for the class in question: Public.h: #pragma once class Public { public: static const int SCREEN_WIDTH=1000; static const int SCREEN_HEIGHT=1250; Public(void); ~Public(void); }; Public.cpp: #include "Public.h" Public::Public(void) { } Public::~Public(void) { } How it is being included: #include "Public.h" c++ visual-studio visual-studio-2012 include codeblocks share|improve this question edited Oct 19 '13 at 0:06 chappjc 25.4k64366 asked Oct 16 '13 at 23:08 user2853108 3733513 see this comment stackoverflow.com/a/31730081/185022 it should be marked as correct solution –AZ_ 2 hours ago add a comment| 6 Answers 6 active oldest votes up vote 12 down vote By default, Visual Studio searches for headers in the folder where y
