How can I use a function written within a .cpp saved in a folder different from the one that needs that function? For all the .cpp of the first folder I've simply added an #include to the .h of the cpp (and it works fine), but trying to add an #include "..\Folder1\....h" to all the .cpp of the second folder is not enough and the Borland C++ Builder gives me the Unresolved external error.
What can I do?
Thanks

@trumpetlicks, OK. If anyone knows how it is done on Borland C++ Builder, please answer. – Agnel Kurian Jul 02 '12 at 13:25

You need to compile the cpp file into an object file (.o) inside its own directory and link that object file with your program.
