Hi,:) I am using Visual studio 2005. And I have made one project as the MFC Application and I want to add new existing project into that project.How can I do that? I have tried to add it into the solution then I compiple it and it does not give errors.But when I use the method of that new added project it gives error like this(function name) identifier not found. Is there any seeting which I have missed to do it? or something else.. So,plz help me if u have any idea. Thanks in advance. Ashish

ummmm.... The only thing that immediately comes to mind is perhaps you haven't included the .cpp or .h files (or whatever types of files you're using) in your project. Make sure you've included the files and then you shouldn't have any other problems otherwise give me the exact error message and I'll see what I can do. Good luck and cheers mate, Michael

You cannot add a project into another project. You can add a new project into an existing workspace.

Make the second project a Dll or a static lib and then link to the dll/lib from the first project. Output for projects in a workspace are independent of each other. Order in which the projects are compiled is important, in your case the second should be compiled first, since it's a DLL output type project hence the first project will be using it. So set a dependency for the first project on the second project and of course link to the second project.

Hi,:-D Thanks For very Quick reply.As u told me to include .h or .cpp files that i have already done it. And still i am getting that error. And also when i see its (function's)definition than it points to that project also. I am using the function SetHook(....) in my existing project and this function is in the new added project. And error gives like below...... 1>d:\testing_and_download\testing\testrtmp_working\testrtmp\rtmpdesk.cpp(665) : error C3861: 'SetHook': identifier not found I am using this function in the RTMPDesk.cpp file in that i have included new project's .h file. And what is the issue of this .lib file??? As i have got reply Plz reply me. Thanking u. Ashish

i am not sure but just give the full path of your .h file. SetHook( ) is member function or global function.????/ hiren

Hi hiru, In my workspace i have project TestRTMP exist ok. And i have included another project in the solution VNCHooks. IN this new project I have .cpp file VNCHooks.cpp file in that SetHook() function is available (it is global there is no any class available in this file) . it is declared in the VNCHooks.h file. And in my Project dependancy window (and in tab of depends on..) i have only one projrct(my orignal) there is new added project available. Thanks. Ashish

Now you need to include the header file. Specify relative path to the header file while including... For eg:
#include "./../MyProject/MyFile.h" // Go back one level and include file from MyProject
Another option is to specify include path in project properties, it's something like "Additional include directories" in the C++ tab. In this case you won't need to specity full path to include a file.

As you told me to include header files i have already included it. And also i tried that "Additional include directories" and include that project directory path, but taht still not working. That gives me the same error. Thanks for taking interest. Ashish

Are the code fragments you included in a namespace?
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not money, I am become as a sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

George Orwell, "Keep the Aspidistra Flying", Opening wordsI have included one project which is DLL project.In that its .h file and .cpp file. In .h file function is declared which is defined in .cpp. And that function i am using in my MFC application.And also i have included added project's header file in my MFC app. Thanks. Plz reply if u have solution.

I guess this is your own DLL, so in that case select project settings for your first project, which needs the dll Goto: Configuration->Debugging->WorkingDirectory Set the value to the directory where this dll is located. Well if this is not your dll then install this dll in the default search path for your application which is the "PATH" variable. In release this dll should in the same directory or somewhere as described above.
