I have done this so many times before but today I just cant get it to
work.
We have a code generator that updates the source code for a library
project. As well as that it updates an SQLite database file in the
project. This database gets stored inside the library executable.
Fundamentally every time the database is changed we need to recompile
the library. Fundamentally many times I forget to do it and sit here
wondering why nothing has changed. So I am trying to automate the
executable generation in the code generator.
If Message.Question("Recompile BO library?", "Yes", "No") = 1 Then
Print "Compiling " & $cProjectPath
Shell "gbc3 -egawx " & $cProjectPath To sCompileLog
Print sCompileLog
Print "Creating executable archive " & $cProjectPath &/
File.BaseName($cProjectPath) & ".gambas"
Shell "gba3 -v -o " & $cProjectPath &/ File.BaseName($cProjectPath)
& ".gambas" To sCompileLog
Print sCompileLog
Endif
The gbc3 bit works fine and all the files in .gambas are updated, but
the gba3 bit doesn't do what I want. The library executable file
timestamp doesn't change.
Here's the output:
Compiling /home/bb/gambas3_proj/atestmgr/tmbo2
OK
Creating executable
archive /home/bb/gambas3_proj/atestmgr/tmbo2/tmbo2.gambas
but the tmbo2.gambas file is still timestamped some hours ago.
I have waded through the IDE code to see if I can find a clue, but alas,
no joy.
I'd appreciate if someone could take a look at that code above and tell
me if there is something glaringly obvious that I just cannot see.
