3476.0. "Installation fails with no Includefiles found" by ATZIS2::EHRLICH_K (Never met a Lady like her before!) Wed Mar 05 1997 06:07

Hi, yes, it's me again ;-(

	on a system which has been run DEC C++ since V4.6 I got 
the following error-message during IVP of the C++ V5.5-017 installation.
There was no *INCLUDE* logical setup before.

The funny thing is, that all includefiles are there on the right place.
SYS$SYSDEVICE:<SYS0.SYSCOMMON.CXX$LIB.REFERENCE.CXXL$DEF_HXX>NEW.HXX

Testing than a small program -> The compiler doesn't find 
any include files per default. Only specifying the
Include logicals to the same location as above works now pretty fine.
Any ideas what can causes this behaviour?
Many thanks in advance,

Cheers
Charly

Thanks; I've notified a host of kit/header developers.

> There was no *INCLUDE* logical setup before.

If a show logical CXX$*INCLUDE* did not show any logicals defined
when this test failed, then the compiler should have resolved the
#include to text library module NEW in SYS$LIBRARY:CXXL$DEF_HXX.TLB.
Can you do a lib/lis sys$library:CXXL$DEF_HXX.TLB and verify that there
is a module named NEW in it?

    Hi Rich,
    
    	YOU're right. I now remember my problem -> I tried to
    reproduce a customer problem who has moved all his include
    files (SYS$LIBRARY:CXXL$DEF_HXX.TLB) to another location.
    I didn't take my changings back.
    
    Sorry, my fault.
