Fatal error F8511: can't open include file
I am running Compile.exe in InstallShield 2009 StandaloneBuild under Windows XP Professional, specifying
-i"C:\Program Files\InstallShield\2009 StandaloneBuild\Script\Ifx\Include"
among the parameters.
I am getting
C:\Program Files\InstallShield\2009 StandaloneBuild\Script\Ifx\Include\IfxXMLRT.h(7) : fatal error F8511: can't open include file
C:\Program Files\InstallShield\2009 StandaloneBuild\Script\Ifx\Include is present on my PC, IfxXMLRT.h is in the \Include directory and I can view it.
Why can't Compile.exe find this include file?
What is the significance of (7) in the message?
Thanks!

I believe it means line 7, which is #include "XMLRT.h", which must be in a different directory not currently listed on your include path...

In other words, what can't be found is not ifxXMLRT.h itself, but rather what is included on its 7th line. Got it, and thanks very much!
