Missing cpp file doesn't break the build?!

(1/2) > >>

oBFusCATed:
I renamed a .cpp file outside C::B, then I've rebuild the project and the build succeeded.

Here is part of the log:

--- Code: ---WARNING: Can't read file's timestamp: /home/obfuscated/projects/myproj/myfile.cpp

--- End code ---

Is it possible to make the build fail in this kind of situations?
I can do it, if the patch will be accepted.

Well, if the build succeeded it means that this file is actually not needed. So why set the build as failed? If the file would really be needed the linker would complain and the build would fail, indeed. Can you clarify why this should be an error?

Jenna:
It also succeeds if the appropriate object-file remains and can be linked.

This is my case.
Is it possible to make this error?

What about a warning like:
"Warning: Probably linking against an obsolete object file (source file not accessible anmyore)."
Because probably you only have the object file. And then it wouldn't be an error.
