VC9 C1083 Cannot open include file: 'boost...' after trying to abstract an include dependency
- by ronivek
Hey,
So I've been working on a project for the past number of weeks and it uses a number of Boost libraries. In particular I'm using the boost::dynamic_bitset library quite extensively.
I've had zero issues up until now; but tonight I discovered a dependency between some includes which I had to resolve; and I tried to do so by providing an abstract callback class.
Effectively I now have the following:
First include...
class OtherClassCallback
{
public:
virtual int someOtherMethod() const = 0;
};
class SomeClass
{
public:
void someMethod(OtherClassCallback *oc) {
...
oc->someOtherMethod();
...
}
};
Second include...
#include "SomeClass.h"
class SomeOtherClass : public OtherClassCallback
{
public:
int someOtherMethod() const { return this->someInt; }
};
Here is the issue; ever since I implemented this class I'm now getting the following error:
fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'boost/dynamic_bitset/dynamic_bitset.hpp': No such file or directory
Now I'm getting no other compiler errors; and it's a pretty substantial project. My include paths and so on are perfect; my files are fully accessible and removing the changes fixes the issue.
Does anyone have any idea what might be going on? I'm compiling to native Windows executables in VS9.
I should confess that I'm very inexperienced with C++ in general so go easy on me if it's something horribly straightforward; I can't figure it out.
