If you use Cygwin tools, you shouldn't use paths like "/cygdrive/c/cygwin/lib". The way to refer to that directory is /lib (unless your Cygwin is installed somewhere other than C:\cygwin). > > and using, > > g++ -I /cygdrive/c/cygwin/lib/eigen/ > /lib is not really for headers. It mostly contains binaries. A canonical place for a header-only library would be /usr/local/include/eigen Doesn't eigen supply a makefile with an "install" target?
