[Scons-users] MSVSProject Intellisense search paths

[Albert Gil]

Hi!

If I'm not wrong, what Sergio is trying to say is that, although the list
of paths in CPPPATH is copied into the NMakeIncludeSearchPath field of the
.vcxproj file created by the MSVSProject() function, its format is not
recognized by the Intellisense. And the whole point of doing this copy is
to be recognized by the Intellisense, right?
Is that right Sergio?
And if you put absolute paths in your CPPATH, then it does work, right?

So, the building works in both cases, but CPPATH values should be set with
absolute values to be useful in NMakeIncludeSearchPath?
To me, it doesn't have sense... I'm sure that Intellisene works with
relative paths.
So, it sounds like a format problem of relative paths?
Not sure...
