How do I set a path in Visual Studio?
How do I set a path for DLL files to be searched in Visual Studio for a particular project alone?
Now I am setting it in the environment path variable, but I would like better control over this.
Answer
Search MSDN for "How to: Set Environment Variables for Projects". (It's Project>Properties>Configuration Properties>Debugging "Environment" and "Merge Environment" properties for those who are in a rush.)
The syntax is NAME=VALUE and macros can be used (for example, $(OutDir)).
For example, to prepend C:\Windows\Temp to the PATH:
PATH=C:\WINDOWS\Temp;%PATH%
Similarly, to append $(TargetDir)\DLLS to the PATH:
PATH=%PATH%;$(TargetDir)\DLLS
