Hi, a bit late reply :) , but I had the same problem also. Solved by adding root folder of xxx.c file's folder (arranged properly folders in "User Include Directories"). Then all .h files were included below xxx.c file at explorer "xxx.c -> Dependencies" folder. Then, to resolve xxx.h not found error at xxx.c, added xxx.h file at "Preprocessor -> Include Files" (have chosen "Private Configurations -> Common).

Hi,
I have followed your suggestion and the library was included properly (the project builds). However I cannot see the files in my project explorer, why is that?

You are in the options for 'main.c'. I forgot to mention that you have to click the project in the file explorer in SES(Project 'spi_pca10056'), and then enter Project -> Edit Options.

Thanks!

I had followed your guidance. I added(typing) the library path into the list. However, the library file doesn't shown in the project Items window in SES IDE. I reload the project, still cannot find these files. Could you see what is wrong with my operations?

Kind regards

Hi,

In SES, select Project -> Edit Options -> in the top left corner change from "Debug" to "Common" and then select the Preprocessor tab. Then you will see "User Include Directories", press the button on the right and include the path to your header files in the list.
