Opening remote header files

You can open remote header files in the Remote C/C++ Editor.

About this task

To open a remote header file, complete the following steps:

Procedure

  1. In the Outline view, right-click the header file that you want to open.
    Outline view - header file
  2. From the pop-up menu, select Open to open the header file in the Remote C/C++ Editor.
    Note: The location of the header file is determined by the system and user include paths defined for the file that is currently open in the Remote C/C++ Editor. When header files are included using the #include "{file}" syntax, the user include path is searched first, and then the system include path is searched.

The remote header file is displayed in the Remote C/C++ Editor.
You can also open the header file directly within the editor by:
  1. Navigating to a line in the source that contains an include directive.
  2. Pressing F3, or alternatively, right-clicking and selecting Open Header File.
