Daylight Savings IDE problem

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

  • I'm not 100% positive, but I think the way I fixed that when it last happened to me was to delete all temporary files (object files, etc.) and do a build all.

  • "...delete all temporary files (object files, etc.) and do a build all"

    Aha!
    What toolset are you using?

    I remember other problems with C51 when using the "register colouring" optimisation - a 'Build All' doesn't clear all the workfiles, so the results of previous builds can still have an effect...

    maybe this could also be related...?

  • DST ended here (EST5EDT) yesterday, and I'm also seeing
    random "file changed" messages. (A bit disturbing
    to me, since if something outside the IDE were
    mangling my source the last thing I would want to do
    is re-load it; but if I said No the IDE just asked me
    again a few seconds later.) I'm still seeing them this
    morning, even though the last-change time on the file
    is last night.

    Rebuild All didn't seem to clear it up; I didn't find
    a "Clean" option.

    Oh, well maybe (as someone up above said) it will
    clear itself up eventually.

    Oh, I'm using uVision3 v3.33b (Eval).
