Hmmmm,

While trying to chase down this problem I discovered that the file name is really Message_Constants.h. When I chase down the error the file name at the top of the edit windows shows the name "message_constants.h" It also shows "Message_Constants.h" What is with the all lower case versus the leading caps?

I execute a Save As to ascertain the actual location and it is as expected. Open Windows explorer and it finds "Message_Constants.h and it does not find "message_constants.h" Now I have changed all occurrences to use the leading caps version but this problem remains.


Why on earth are you editing those header files? It technically should not matter if headers use "message_constants.h" or "Message_Constants.h" unless you have modified the OS group policy that enforces case sensitivity[^]. File a bug if this is an issue for your organization.

Learn to use the tools you are given. You should be using the /showIncludes (List Include Files)[^] option for debugging nested include bugs.

How to: View, Save, and Configure Build Log Files[^]

Enable 'Diagnostic' verbose logging. Search that log for message_constants.h and you should quickly find the offending file.

Career Advice: You should always avoid #including headers from headers... from other nested headers.

Yes, this means you may need to add #include "your_header.h" in 50 different CPP files.

Best Wishes,
