如何访问外部库和头文件VC10

Question

I'm going to get a book that uses Xerces C++. I'm currently using VS 2010 ultimate, so the program doesn't miss any features. I've downloaded the precompiled binaries for windows x86 VC10. My question is what do I have to do to my environmental variables and files to be able to have Visual studio import the header files ie #include . I have no experience linking external libraries, so I need a simple explanation.

Answer 1

Right click on your project -> Properties -> C/C++ -> General -> Additional Include Directories

Include the path of Xerces include files.

For Lib Properties Linker -> General -> Additional Library Directories

Include the path of Xerces lib files.

In Linker -> General -> Input -> Additional dependencies

Add the libs required for linking.
