Hi,

I have probably a trivial question. I couldn't find on manual or/and forum it because I do not know how to name it.

The problem is that each time I start compiler, it compiles all files from my project. I have many files in my project and the time is quite long.

Is there a possibility that compiler only compile the file that I've already changed and linked with the files that was previously compiled and didn't change?

Hi

I think you might did not found it because may be there is no way to do it directly.
I know some programming environment provide this option (not only for embedded application) but it is hard to trust on it.
For instance changing a source option is a change but for some tools only changing the source is detected as a change.

Still the easiest way should be to do it might be to simply exclude from the build the files will not change while working on a specific part of your project.
I guess this is already what you were doing.

Hi,
Thanks matloub,

I've replaced as many .c files with object as I could. This works ok but I would prefer to have all source code open. The problem is that I have different optimization options for each file.

I remember that ride used to work properly (compile only changed files) so I was thinking what I have done to lost it?
