Last night daylight savings started and my PC's clock automatically switched forward 1 hour. Now whenever I compile my project in the Keil IDE I get a warning saying that:
File has been changed outside the editor, reload? [Yes] [No]
This is happening on multiple files. No matter what I try, closing/reopening files, the IDE, even rebooting windows, I cannot make the IDE understand that the files are not actually changing.
The same thing happened last time daylight savings started but eventually "went away". I can't remember how long it took for the messages to stop appearing. I think it was about 24 hours.
Does anyone know how to stop the IDE from displaying this message - its very annoying.
Regards Paul
Hi Rich,
Thanks for the pointers, but Daylight savings did start last night, the first weekend in October. Well for us New Zealanders on the other side of the world it did anyway.
My PC clock is correct and all in working order. I guess the only real way for anyone else to test it is to have the IDE open when Windows adjusts the PC's clock for daylight savings starting.
I had *exactly* the same problem for a day or two after daylight saving started last year - but I did not say anything. Now that it has happened twice, I thought I'd better ask to see if this has happened to anyone else.
I did not notice this problem when Daylight savings ended earlier this year - but then I may not have been working at 2:00am then either.
P.S. It's just gone 2:20am here on Oct 2, yes lots of cola - lots of work...
Did you restart your computer already after the time change?
Yes I have rebooted numerous times, I have switched the PC off a few times. See my original description of the problem:
"...closing/reopening files, the IDE, even rebooting windows..."
In desperation, I have just (20 minutes ago) reinstalled V6.04a and selected the "do not keep existing settings" option during the install. So far I have not seen the message again. (fingers crossed).
Stay tuned, for this may happen again in October 2007 :)
