Using (relative) paths to shortcut in include statements in C++
<p>I started coding in C++ few days ago. I am using windows as my OS for writing code. I have been keeping all of my "well-written" codes in a single location. Now, I am working on a project that requires the use of those codes. So, I planned to include those files that I require as header files in my project. However, to make my project "self-contained", I created shortcuts of those folders that I require and kept them in the source folder of my new project and decided to use relative paths to the shortcuts in the "<code>include</code>" statements in my project.</p>

<p>However, I am getting an error. Is there any way to use relative (or, in general, absolute) paths to shortcuts in the <code>include</code> statements of C++ in windows?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
