Frequently Asked Questions
Cannot write EXE or DLL to disk.
Question:
Occasionally, when building a dynamic link library or executable
file, the IDE responds that it cannot write the exe or dll file. How
can I get around this?
Answer:
This will happen if the executable or dynamic link library is still
in memory. If you have executed the file outside of the IDE, and then
try to compile your project, the Windows system will not allow the
compiler to overwrite the file. The only recourse is to make sure the
application is not running, or your dll is not in memory when you
attempt to compile the project.
