Try the following C++ source:

#include "Foo.h"

struct CFoo
{
int Bar;
};

CFoo *Foo;

Try to change the include path to "../Foo.h"

VAX replaces '.' to '->' so the include path will be "->->/Foo.h"

This is very annoying ...

using VS 2003 and VAX 1418 i have added the code:

#include "Foo.h"

struct CFoo
{
    int Bar;
};

static void include_test()
{
    CFoo *Foo;
    Foo->Bar;
}


to an existing cpp file. i used Foo in the function to make sure that VAX was converting "." to "->" correctly, and it is. i then changed the include line as you did, and the dots were left alone. are you doing something different?

Yes, in my code "CFoo *Foo;" is in global scope, not inside a function.
The problem is likely appearing only when Foo is a global variable.

*ah* i have found the problem. there was some other variable called "Foo" in the test project i was using that was confusing VAX. if i use a proper project that is not already full of things called "Foo" and "Bar" then i see the same thing.

i had initially tried with "CFoo *Foo;" at global scope, but that had not worked either, and i presumed this was a typo, due to my slight aversion to global variables
