I just opened someone else's Visual Studio project and in their build properties they have a few custom path macro's they are using for their include and lib directories. The macro names are things like this:
$(MY_WHATEVER_INCLUDE_DIR)
I could manually replace every single macro with the real path, but it would be nice to just use the macros. My question is, where do I define these custom path macros at?
