MinGW - Minimalist GNU for Windows

Hi folks,

	How can I assure that an app in one directory will read data from an app in an 
entirely different directory?

	scenario:

	two directorys at root of hard drive (d:/app1 & d:/app2).

	App2 requires data (.h) from App1.

	MSYS has environment variable defined and functioning ($app1).  App2 uses $app1 
to determine where .h files are supposed to be by defining $app1 as prefix for 
include directory of app1.  Compiler keeps telling me that the .h files required do 
not exist.
	
	All indications point to this, somehow or another, MSYS is not able to find the 
.h files since compiler is continually choking whenever a reference to 
d:/app1/include/ or d:/app1/include/subdir comes up with the error, "myfile.h, no 
such file or directory. Mounting d:/app1, d:/app1/include or d:/app1/include/subdir 
makes no difference.  Copying include directory (d:/app1/include/) from app1 to app2 
directory makes no difference.

	I am out of ideas.  Any suggestions?

	Thanks,

		Paul G.

The steps I took to test your explained problem: $ mkdir /c/foo1 $ cat << EOD > /c/foo1/foo1.h #define FOO1 "Hello from foo1" EOD $ cat << EOD > /c/foo2/foo2.c #include <foo1.h> int main (void) { printf("%s\n", FOO1); return 0; } EOD $ cd /c/foo2 $ gcc -o foo2 foo2.c -I c:/foo1 $ ./foo2 Hello from foo1 Earnie.
