The --include_path assembler option names an alternate directory that contains copy/include files or macro libraries. The format of the --include_path option is as follows:
| cl2000 --include_path= pathname source filename [other options] |
There is no limit to the number of --include_path options per invocation; each --include_path option names one pathname. In assembly source, you can use the .copy, .include, or .mlib directive without specifying path information. If the assembler does not find the file in the directory that contains the current source file, it searches the paths designated by the --include_path options.
For example, assume that a file called source.asm is in the current directory; source.asm contains the following directive statement:
.copy "copy.asm"Assume the following paths for the copy.asm file:
| UNIX: | /tools/files/copy.asm |
| Windows: | c:\tools\files\copy.asm |
You could set up the search path with the commands shown below:
| Operating System | Enter |
|---|---|
| UNIX (Bourne shell) | |
| Windows | |
The assembler first searches for copy.asm in the current directory because source.asm is in the current directory. Then the assembler searches in the directory named with the --include_path option.
