Title: Changed my app ICON but still stuck with old
Post by: imric on June 20, 2015, 09:54:08 pm

I started a project, setup an icon for the main app icon (ID = 1) and it worked just fine.
That icon did get used on the .exe in both the Debug and Release versions - good so far.

The problem is: now I've changed to a different icon (new .ico file) and I still get the original icon
showing on the .exe. I've even thrown the old .ico and the .res files away, and yes, I changes the .rc
script for the new .ico file name, but I still get the old icon.

I thought it might be referenced either in the Project file or the Dependencies file but nope - not there.
I don't even have the old .ico file in existence anymore but somehow C::B still remembers and uses it.

Any clues how I can get C::B to forget the old one and make use of the new one??

FYI: I have no idea why you think your problem has anything to do with Code::Blocks instead of it being either an Compiler or Operating System issue.

The only CB thing I can think of is you failed to rebuild your CB project.

Edit: It might help if you posted a full rebuild log.

It would also help if you describe the problem; because I know of no where in CB that the icon is displayed; but, I only use a very small amount of the whole of CB.
