I am currently using TC++ 3.0's I.D.E. to conveniently compile/link/ and
run my code on-the-fly.  Lately, I have written some code that uses
some INCLUDE header files and LIB's that are not part of TC++ but are third
party headers and LIBS. I obviously keep these non-TC++ headers and libs in
different sub directories from the standard TC++ headers and libs. I have tol
TC++ where it can find these headers and libs in the I.D.E. in hopes that 
automatic compiling/linking and running convenience is maintained.

I can compile with all the headers but I cannot Link my code from within
the I.D.E. because the linker does not know the name of the non-TC++ LIB.

I have remedied the situation,(albeit using stop/gap ways) by creating a cute
little MAKE file,but I lose the convenience of the I.D.E.!

whaa whaaaaaa, whiiinnnneee!! 
I know I know , I try not to whine but I just have toooo 
sooomeeetiiiimmmmees ;)

How can I get the I.D.E. to mimic what my MAKE file does while maintaining the
convenience of the I.D.E.(how do I tell the linker where the LIB is inside the
I.D.E.) ???? 


Thanks,
Zeke

All you need to do is create a project file, and put the .lib in
the project. Everytime you compile your program, TC++ will automatically
read the third-party library.

P.S. This will work for both .obj and .lib files.

Well, I use Borland C++ 2.0, and was able to link external libraries
by including the libraries in the project file list.
