As far as I know Delphi can't read C header files. Also if it is in " Delphi will disregard it anyway.
A C header file usually contains function and class prototypes and new type declarations. You will have to convert any header file to a .pas file and include in your uses. try http://www.delphi-jedi.org/Jedi:APICONVTEAMS:357067 it has information on converting C Header files to Pascal. A word of warning though, having done this sort of thing in the past, it is not a trivial task and will require a knowledge of C types. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ben none Sent: Thursday, 3 July 2003 6:59 am To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Subject: [DUG]: Cannot locate "cvtypes.h" Hi there, Ive used headconv to convert c header files to unit files. I then created a project and added them to the uses clause then compiled and it said: file not found "cvtypes.h" this is written in the converted header files of one the files I converted. {$INCLUDE "cvtypes.h"} so I added a 'C header files' folder and put the cvtypes.h in there and added that to the search path. Still it couldn't compile. kept saying: file not found "cvtypes.h" what am I doing wrong? Also another question is I kinda figure that I should only convert the header files with headconv which has a dll. If no dll is present in one of the folders which closely matches the name of the header file, then don't convert header file. Am I right about that?
