No custom include path in compiler command line

[aunoor]

If add to src_build any -I directive containing relative path, then platformio parser just throw it away.
Example:
src_build = -I/home/user/include - work, if dir exist
src_build = -I. - don't work

This is also an issue on windows. I build a default project with SublimeText which creates a src and lib directory but the lib directory is not put in the path. So I tried adding it to the config file and can't figure out any way to do it on Windows 7, with platformio 2.2.2. Here are the various things I tried and what I see on the compiler line:

Input: src_build_flags = -Ic:/Users/foo/project/lib
Compiler: -Ilib

Input: src_build_flags = -I/Users/foo/project/lib
Compiler: -Ilib

Input: src_build_flags = -I../lib
Compiler: -Ilib

Is there any work around? This is pretty crippling at this point.

@TD22057 PlatformIO automatically handles libraries from lib directory. Each lib should be placed in own directory. See docs http://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/userguide/cmd_init.html#description

As for this issue - I'll work on it. Sorry for the troubles 😢

Thanks. Off topic: I was hoping to not have a flat library (lib/LIB_NAME/SOURCE) structure and use platformio. There are way too many libraries with the same names so I was hoping to have lib/DIR/LIB_NAME/SOURCE and then say "#include "DIR/LIB_NAME/File.h" in my code. Of course I'm coming from a regular C++ dev background so perhaps that's the wrong way to think about Arduino...

@TD22057 PlatformIO looks for source code of libraries in lib/DIRs. Try this:

#include <LIB_NAME/File.h>

• don't need additional flags
• PlatformIO will automatically find dependencies from your source files and built static libs. You should see it in build result.

Please report me if you still have problems.

Dear @aunoor, @TD22057,

Please re-test the latest PlatformIO 2.3.6.dev3 http://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/installation.html#development-version
