How to include header files in GCC search path?

Question

I have the following code in a sample file:

#include "SkCanvas.h"
#include "SkDevice.h"
#include "SkGLCanvas.h"
#include "SkGraphics.h"
#include "SkImageEncoder.h"
#include "SkPaint.h"
#include "SkPicture.h"
#include "SkStream.h"
#include "SkWindow.h"

However, this code is located in various folders within /home/me/development/skia (which includes core/ animator/ images/ ports/ svg/ and a lot more.)

How can I make GCC recognize this path?

Answer 1

试试gcc -c -I/home/me/development/skia sample.c 。

Answer 2

-I指令完成这项工作：

gcc -Icore -Ianimator -Iimages -Ianother_dir -Iyet_another_dir my_file.c 

Answer 3

Using environment variable is sometimes more convenient when you do not control the build scripts / process.

For C includes use C_INCLUDE_PATH .

For C++ includes use CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH .

See this link for other gcc environment variables.

Example usage in MacOS / Linux

# `pip install` will automatically run `gcc` using parameters
# specified in the `asyncpg` package (that I do not control)

C_INCLUDE_PATH=/home/scott/.pyenv/versions/3.7.9/include/python3.7m pip install asyncpg

Example usage in Windows

set C_INCLUDE_PATH="C:\Users\Scott\.pyenv\versions\3.7.9\include\python3.7m"

pip install asyncpg

# clear the environment variable so it doesn't affect other builds
set C_INCLUDE_PATH=
