Hi! Im trying to include a custom header file into my program; it's in another directory than the default one for header files. I failed when using the -Ipath option with the compiler, and I can't think of any other syntax than this:
pacc -Ipath [path] [file], so can someone help me please?
For example I wrote: pacc -Ipath C:\customh\ myprog.c
and in my file I wrote #include "test.h" but it won't work, although the test.h file is in the specified directory (error message: "Cannot open include file "test.h""). I know this is a beginners problem but I still need help!
Regards Ygg

The "General Programming" forum's summary reads "A general discussion about programming issues which are not specific to any particular processor or compiler.", yet your question has to be about a specific compiler and you have posted here without specifying what compiler you are using.
Your post twice used "pacc". Is that a typo for "picc"? Are you using HI-TECH's PICC compiler or are you truly using HI-TECH's Pacific C 8086 compiler?

I followed the link on this page "http://www.htsoft.com/products/PACIFICc.php" to this forum; the link was described thus: "A forum for Pacific C is available on this website. Use it to ask questions, read other people's answers or generally discuss Pacific C."; I made the bold text myself. So yes, it's the Pacific C compiler I'm using, and I thought this entire forum was about Pacific C; now I found the sub forum for Pacific C users and I reposted this topic there.

And from that list of 10 forum categories and 11 compilers you selected the one having the description "Any general topics which are not specific to a particular processor or compiler or other forum" instead of the one named Pacific C & 80x86 and having the description "Discussions about the Pacific C and 8086 C compilers and associated processors"! Why?
Instead of bumping this topic I will respond in my latest post - and thank you for providing me with an answer to my problem. I simply assumed that the sentence I quoted in my first post was literally and exclusively true and I didn't bother to read any futher descriptions about the forum since I believed I had found what I sought. However if I have more questions about the Pacific C compiler I will post in it's specialized forum.

No inference can be made in that regard because that link you described took you here where there are 14! compilers listed:

... and my question is how do I specify the directory for include files to the compiler.
pacc -IC:\customh myprog.c
