CodeWright & IAR

Started by nightz13 October 19, 2005
Hello,

I'm useing CodeWright 7.5 and IAR 3.21A.  I have IAR setup to use an
external DDE editor (CodeWright).  Everythign was working great at one
time.  When I edited a file in CodeWright the changes would instantly
show up in IAR.  Now, something has chnaged and this no longer works.
 I know the link still exists because when I double click a compile
error in IAR it takes me to the appropriate line of code in
CodeWright.  It seems like the link is only working in one direction.
 Does anyone have suggestions on what I can check?

I have recreated proejcts, uninstalled and re-installed software, and
copied config files from another computer that is working fine.  Still
no luck.

Thanks for your help,
-Rocko

Hi Rocko!

The option to control this is in Tools -> Options -> Editor -> Scan for

changed files.

Anders,

Thank you so much for the help.  It's working great.  This has been
driving me nuts!  So much easier to use with this feature on.

Thanks again,
