Thread: Problem: Target is up to date. Nothing to be done.

Hello,

I am using Code::Blocks, and when I try to compile my project, it is says

Code:

Target is up to date. Nothing to be done.

I pretty sure this have nothing to do with the code itself, but maybe with directory of my files or something. I programmed before on code::blocks and everything was fine, but now I cannot compile code at all.

My project is with 2 .cpp files and 1 header file.

Anyone got any idea how to solve this?

Thanks.

Does this happen when you press the rebuild button?

If so are the files included in the project?

Jim

Yes, I tried rebuild but same thing happens again when I compile.

That's simple project with class which includes two .cpp files and one header file.

I would try to remove all files from the project, then re-adding them to the project making sure that you add them to all Targets.

Then retry the re-build. Start with selecting Clean from the Build menu.

Jim

You mean re-add them to make sure .cpp files are in Source directory and .h in Header's? Yes I made that and still same =/

Right click on one of your files that are in the "Project" frame.

Select Properties

Select Build.

Insure that all the check boxes are checked (there should be at least 4 check boxes).


What Version of Code::blocks are you using??

Jim

Yes made that, checked all boxes and built. Now on header file there is a lock simbol, dunno what that means.

I was using older version with this problem, but today I reinstalled to newest (10.05), but still same happens. What is strange that this happens without any reason - first when I installed everything was ok, then after I compiled program few times thing this happened.

Is the file read only?

Do you have permissions to write to the file?

Right click on the header Select properties. Is the Read only flag checked here?


Jim

Yes was read only, but now I unchecked, but still same thing. Probably accidently checked read only.

Sipher --> what?

This sounds like a message from `make`. Look in your project's directory/ies. Do you see a file named 'Makefile' anywhere? If so, could you please post its contents?

Use "Clean" to delete the object files.
Then try build, does CB give any clean or build commands in the build log?
