Hi, 

we have a solution that includes a few projects and a library folder. Inside the library folder we have subfolders: Liba, LibB etc.

In my solution I created a new Arduino Library Project: LibC and placed it with the other Libraries.

I have included this library as reference to the project I am currently working on.
When I try and include files from this library I can only include files under the folder LibC. Any files in LibC/SubA shows up when I autocomplete the include, but when I try and compile it shows:  No such file or directory.
It compiles when I change the include to point to the exact location, but I can not do this for every file in all of the sub directories.

Is there something I need to do to automatically point to the correct subfolders within a folder?

Hi, 

This is a library we created using vMicro in visual studio, by adding a Arduino Library Project to our solution. It isn't a Arduino library that is installed and usable through the Arduino Libraries Manager. As far as I know, the Arduino IDE does not include libraries in this manner.

Hi,

I think you need to stick to the arduino rules which are to create an \src folder below the library where LibName.h will exist. Then your code goes in that folder or sub folders.

You should also have a library.properties in the root.

If you create a library in the arduino sketchbook libraries folder (normall documents/arduino/libraries) then the the arduino ide will also be happy with it.

Visual Micro allows you to create libraries in non-arduino locations which is one of the main reasons for adding the reference. However, in all other respects you must confirm to the Arduino Library Specification/guidelnes

If you have a valid lib structure then everything should work but make sure an include from the src folder is in some code. For example #include "mylibName.h". Then the lib will resolve paths and other sources from lib src\sub_folders could be used.
