Unneeded recompiles

Mike_M_1 — Fri, 21 Apr 2017 17:38:34 GMT

While doing test runs inside the IDE (to allow use of the debugger), several (but not all) of my modules are recompiled, in spite of lack of changes. I remember seeing a post on this topic recently, but failed to bookmark it. Can you point me in the right direction?

There was this recent thread about projects always rebuilding. In some replies to that thread, other references were given to some other recent related threads.

Hope that helps.

What version are you using?

Circular dependencies are a common cause. If you do a clean build do you get any errors (e.g. can't find module) at the first build?

Andrew and Kevin,

Andrew and Kevin,

Circular dependencies were indeed the problem. Module A "USEd" Module B in several of its subroutines, but without calling any of the routines in Module B. However, Module B USEd and called subroutines in A. Eliminating the references to Module B solved the problem. However, trying to do a clean build led to other problems that needed resolution before I could fix the one above. The good news is no more needless recompiles.

Mahalo for you assistance, Mike

Glad you resolved it.
