Imported File Does Not Exist Exception

Description

The file that is being imported does not exist.

Example:

Suppose we have the following file structure:

main.step
lib/
	lib.step
	foo/
		bar.step

If main.step contains the following line:

import "lib.step"

Then this error will be thrown because lib.step is not in the same directory as main.step.

Remediation

Check the file path and ensure that the file exists. The given path must be relative to the file importing it.

Example:

From main.step we'd have to import lib/lib.step like so:

import "lib/lib.step"

And bar.step like this:

import "lib/foo/bar.step"

If lib.step were to import bar.step it would have to do so like this:

import "foo/bar.step"

This is because lib.step is in the same directory as the foo directory.
