Re: Including headers from framework in other subproject

[Nicola Pero]

Hi Joe

I would suggest something like

ADDITIONAL_LIB_DIRS += -L../Foo.framework
ADDITIONAL_INCLUDE_DIRS += -I../derived_src

In other words, when building a framework, gnustep-make also creates a  
directory ./derived_src, that contains a symlink

 ./derived_src/Foo --> ./Foo.framework/Headers

so if you add -I../derived_src, you can access the header Xyz.h of  
framework Foo by just including <Foo/Xyz.h> :-)

I hope that helps. ;-)

Thanks
