why include file needs to trefresh?

[Nifrabar]

Hi!

I have a include-file bound to a form.
Out of the blues the include-file caused an error when building an application. (vars from th eionclude file where not found at runtime).
After I released and attached the include file again and did another build all worked as normal.
Any idea why this could happen ?

If you change the include file the form is not recompiled in all cases, so definitions made in the changed include file may not be known.

The best way should be to explicitly COMPILE ...scx or ...vcx after a .H-File is changed.

Keep in mind, it's all preprocessor directives, so this is quite detached from the compiled form or classlib.

Bye, Olaf.

Hi Olaf,
Thanks for your reply.
Th esilly thing is that as far as I know the include file has not been changed.....

If the runtime complains about undefined constants or the like, there once must have been changes to the include file that weren't compiled into the objectcode portion of the SCX.

Bye, Olaf.
