Creating a Directory List for Source Files

If you have moved a source file, or if for some other reason Prism can't find it, you can explicitly add its directory to Prism's search path.

• From the menu bar - Choose the Use selection from the File menu. This displays a dialog box, as shown in Figure 3-5. To add a directory, type its path name in the Directory box, then click on Add. To remove a directory, click on it in the directory list, then click on Remove.

Figure 3-5 Use Dialog Box

• From the command window - Issue the use command on the command line. Specify a directory as an argument; the directory is added to the front of the search path. Issue use with no arguments to display the list of directories to be searched.

  Note -

  No matter what the contents of your directory list are, Prism searches for the source file first in the directory in which the program was compiled.
