Script changes, Compile -- Test Vs Run

[NewsArchive]

If i make a script change and

Click "Test" I am prompted to save the file, it is compiled and then run in
test mode -- Good

Click "Run" I am prompted to save the file, it is ** NOT ** compiled and
then run in "real" mode -- BAD

Is this as intended?

Can you reproduce this? Both functions use the same compiler switch. At
the moment I cannot reproduce this (both Test and Run re-compile here if
there was a script change.

Thanks,

Yes, But I found why....

I have a project open that uses "include Scripts" --

If I am editing the "Include Script" -- This problem happens

If I am editing the "Install Script" -- This problem ** DOES NOT ** happen

So something is different in the was "Test" and "Run" handle checking for
changes before running.

Okay, thank you! I'll check this.

Kevin,

I cannot reproduce this on any of our machines :-( I tried a project with
15 include scripts, but now way. Would it be possible for you to send me a
demo script/include script example?

Thanks,
Friedrich

Friedrich,

Don't know if this will help you isolate the but, but the behavior itself is
a regression. You'll recall you found and fixed this several releases back.

Mark,

Thank you! You are right. I fixed this several releases back, but I think
I forgot to change one line in the TOOLBAR source code :-( The "Run"
function initiated from the menu bar should work fine. I have fixed this
Toolbar problem now.

Thanks,
Friedrich

Wait a second... I do see a difference in the source code (one line in the
"Run" function). I'll comment this out. It would be great if you could
check this again in the next build.

Thanks,

Kevin,

I think this only happens if you click the "Run" button on the TOOLBAR. If
you use Build | Run Installer... from the MENU it should work fine.

Could you please test this?

Thanks,
Friedrich

Yes, you are correct the toolbar menu button saves the script, but does not
recompile - only runs it

The menu dropdown "run" command saves and builds the script before running.

Glad you found the problem and I was not "crazy" -- Ha Ha
