Hello,

I am using Eclipse SDK 3.1.2 + CDT 3.0.2 + MinGW 3.4.2 for my
developement. I am going to include a external API header for my
developement. I add the include path on "Project" > "Properties" > "C/C++
Include Paths Symbols" > "Add External Include Path...". However, I also
get error "imqi.hpp:No such file or directory" on the line which include
this external header file when building the project. How can I fix this
problem?

Regards

It sounds like you've got a regular make project, so you're maintaining
your own Makefile. I believe that Project>properties>C/C++ Include Paths
is for the indexer, which doesn't know anything about your makefile. You
have to separately configure your makefile(s) to use the correct include
paths as well.
