Title: 2 projects in one workspace
Post by: jimmyo on August 10, 2007, 09:16:19 am

Hello,

i have 2 projects in one workspace.
the first project create a dynamic library (*.so)
and the second create a executable to thest this
dynamic library.
the executable project is the active project.
if i change something in the first project, it does not
compile it at F8. Is there a way to set a build dependency ?

Thanks.
  Jimmy

Hi !

Right click on your exe project and click on Properties...
Click on Build targets tab and then on the dependencies button.

Hi Jimmy,
I'm having similar issues with static libs. If I make a static lib in project 1 and use it project 2, the second project doesn't relink when the lib has changed. In project 2 I added the lib in the linker settings.

Must I really set the external dependency (by hand) even if I added the lib in the build options of the 2nd project?
