For include files you can set CPATH, for libraries you'll need to set LIBRARY_PATH. See http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Environment-Variables.html Both can contain different paths separated by a colon (:). How to set environment variables depends on the shell you use. csh uses the 'set' command, while sh and bash use 'export'. See your shell's manual page for details.

However, cpp already has a non-invasive way of supplying extra include paths with the -I flag, or you can set the CPATH environemtn vairable to the paths you would like to search (its form is exactly like that of PATH). ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
