Title: locked files
Post by: Hans211 on September 15, 2008, 04:19:57 PM
Using 5.00.8 under windows xp

I get reguarly using the ide that source file can't be written when I save it.
I then get a message box, saying:

Error writing to file 'fileinfo.c'
The process cannot access the file because its being used by another process.


Also during rebuild I get :
Building fileinfo.obj
*** Error code: 42 ***
Building fileinfo.exe
Done.

But the second time I do it, it works ok.
If I do it another time, i get that error 42 again.

The only thing that helps, is :
- close the source file in the ide
- exit the ide
- start the ide again
- open the file
- make change and save it.


It seems as long I don't buil or rebuild it, I can make changes to the source without problem
but as soon as I build or rebuild it, I can't save new changes in the files any more.

The question is, what is error 42 and can it be prevented.

Happens with any project..

Error 42 is explained somewhere else on this forum - it has to do with the browse info manager. You could possibly try to disable browse information.
