How do I specify an include directory in ADA GPS

I was given an Ada source file from a co-worker to include in an existing project. This source file wants to include the win32.ads which I see in c:\gnatpro\include\win32ada . But my installation of GnatPro doesn't look into this folder area, only the version-specific c:\gnatpro\6.2.2... I'm not sure what I need to change to force the build tools to see c:\gnatpro\include as well (if it was C/C++ I'd add -i).

Any suggestions on how to modify my build command to include c:\gnatpro\include ?

If you are using GNATpro you should be able to get pro support from Adacore, and pro support is very good. That said ... what build command? You mention GPS, I’d expect you to be using a project file. But if you’re using gnatmake or gprbuild , then you can use -Idir just like in C. - Simon Wright
And I’m pretty sure that the C equivalent is -I, not -i. - Simon Wright
-Idir did not work (gprbuild: illegal option on the command line). - erict
No more it does, sorry. You might be able to use -cargs -Idir at the end of the command line. - Simon Wright

Add the environment variable ADA_INCLUDE_PATH=dir to include the folder into the build process.
