Include Paths

The Include Paths option in the Environment dialog box invokes a dialog box in which you can list paths that the compiler uses when searching for header files with simple pathnames. The Include Paths dialog box has two lists of paths in which to search for include files, one for include paths specific to the project and one for paths not specific to the project. LabWindows/CVI saves the list of paths specific to the project with the project file. LabWindows/CVI saves the list of paths not specific to the project from one session to another on the same machine, regardless of the project. When you install VXIplug&play instrument drivers, the installation program places the include files for the drivers in a specific VXIplug&play include directory. If you install IVI instrument drivers, the installation program places the include files for those drivers in a specific IVI include directory. LabWindows/CVI also searches those directories for include files.

To access the Environment dialog box, select Options»Environment from the Workspace window.
