Why does LV store unchanged files in project?

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi,

 

I wonder why LV "stores" files in a project that have not been changed?

 

As a result, my configuration management tool delivers these files too, although LV compare shows no difference.

 

It's annoying because a check-in doesn't really mirror the list of those files that indeed have been changed?

 

Can I fix it somehow or is it something inherent in LabView (if yes why)?

 

Thanks,

 

Peter

Do you have the "Separate Compiled Code" turned on for your VIs?

Hey,

 

this behavior is because labview recompiles the VIs every time. So sourcecode control gest a change even there is none.

 

You can prevent this behavior if you go to options -> Environment -> separate compiled code from new files.
