Locating header files

I have a very large sketch that includes many libraries. Some of the libraries are installed in the Libraries folder while others remain in my sketch folder while developing them. I am encountering problems where a sketch in the Library refers to a file that is still in the sketch folder. Since the #include statement is using quotes, the compiler apparently thinks the file should be in the same folder as the file referring to it instead of the sketch folder.

Is there any way I can get the compiler to always search the sketch folder first?

I will look into it when I get a mo but did you know that you can develop libraries if you use the "create shared project for libraries" facility.

Thinking some more you might find adding the include for the project folder will work

use F4 project properties > extraFlags

Code
Select All
-I"{sketch_path}"



note: {sketch_path} is a system variable that will be automatically resolved to the current path. -I"{ProjectDir}" also works
