The attached output indeed should never happen. What file did you touch to generate it? > Should not at least the first 3 completed executions no longer need > to be re-executed? Yes. Could you check the timestamps of /home/kevin/devel/libreoffice/workdir/unxlngx6.pro/Dep/CxxObject/sc/source/filter/dif/difexp.d being newer than /home/kevin/devel/libreoffice/workdir/unxlngx6.pro/CxxObject/sc/source/filter/dif/difexp.o and that again being newer than /home/kevin/devel/libreoffice/sc/source/filter/dif/difexp.cxx , please? > Are there any pointers for me on how I can compile _just the exact_ > piece of code on which I'm working (and affected other snippets, of > course)? You can build without unitchecks by doing a: (. ../Env.Host.sh && make build) You make it ignore header dependencies by doing a: (. ../Env.Host.sh && make gb_FULLDEPS= build) Then only objects get rebuild if you touched the cxx directly. If you do a: (. ../Env.Host.sh && make gb_FULLDEPS= -W `readlink -f source/filter/dif/difexp.cxx` build) only difexp.cxx gets recompiled and relinked, even if it wasnt directly changed.
