Hello,

For .h files, you need to give the path(s) to that files as include paths:

Proprieties -> Settings -> MCC GCC compiler -> Include Paths:

For .c file you need to drag and drop the file to the Project explorer at the level you want. You will get this message:

Click OK. The file will be added to you project.

A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.
A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.
