    Is it possible to use a folder shortcut in Qt Creator for the INCLUDEPATH variable? My attempts are ending in failure but maybe there is special syntax to use?

    Thanks.

      No, I don't think so. You could however use real symbolic links or junctions. These are supported by NTFS, they are just not supported in the default tools on windows. You could use a tool like "this one":http://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/hardlinkshellext.html to add support though. This page also has an explanation on the different types of linking that are possible.
