Wow, I was absolutely convinced I had posted about this before but I can find no trace of it. So ...
... with Win Xp XP3, Plato v4.4.0, FTN95 v6.10.0 ...
... working on an application I haven't looked at for a while.
After I changed some code in one module, I selected CHECKMATE Win32 and rebuilt, then DEBUG Win32 and rebuilt, and then RELEASE Win32 and rebuilt. (This is more or less standard practice for me when I am developing).
Then I reselected CHECKMATE Win32 and hit the "Continue debugging" button on the Build toolbar. Plato announced that "This configuration is out of date. Would I like to build it?". When I said yes, it compiled the module that it already compiled three builds ago, and went ahead.
A little more investigation reveals that actually I can select any one of the three build modes and try and run, and Plato will say the same thing. The behaviour is quite repeatable. Furthermore, if I rebuild all three builds again, it will continue to ask the same question if I then change mode from the last one built.
As I have written this post, I have decided that I have definitely posted about, or reported, this before. I even searched emails to see if I had reported it as a bug instead but nothing there either. So ...
Is there any evidence that posts are going missing from the forum? I searched the whole forum, not just the Plato subforum (even though it is clearly a Plato issue), and there is no trace of any such post. This is not the first time I have begun a post with words approximating to "I am convinced I had posted about this before but I can find no trace of anything, so here goes ..." |

I cannot check this right now but I think I know what may be the problem.
I should be able to get back to you fairly soon (couple of weeks) on this one. |

Thanks Paul. I presume you are referring to the Plato problem rather than the forum problem. I would be grateful if you could make sure the latter is also investigated along the lines I suggested. The number of times I search for and fail to find something I am sure I have posted about before, is something that has been bugging me for a while. |

I have had a look at the code that posts to the forum and made a few changes. If you see any more errors can you send the url to ftn95@silverfrost.com please.
The code that sends the emails run after posting to the forum so I don't think this issue could cause missing posts . Also it only runs on replies, not the initial posting so any starting post should be okay. |

I have now tested the original reported Plato problem but cannot reproduce it. I am assuming that it has been fixed already but if it persists after the next release then please let me know. |
