If I have a project Foo that has a .lib as an output that’s also used by projects Bar and Baz, how do I let Bar and Baz know where to find the library assuming MSVC? I have the project dependencies set up already, but how do I #pragma comment(lib, "????/Foo.lib") properly?
You have two options.
Firstly, Visual Studio itself has a global library path that it searches for all projects. You can add directories to this via
Tools > Options > Projects and Solutions > VC++ Directories > Library files.Alternatively, you can set the library path for specific projects. In the project properties set
Configuration Properties > Linker > General > Additional Library Directories.
