11.3 mystery behavior - IDE lauches other app in project group after re-compile

[SwiftExpat 65]

In Delphi 11.3 I am curious if anyone else has seen this behavior. I can not reproduce this yet, but it has happened several times and I am curious if anyone else has seen this.

 

I will likely rebuild this project group to see if it resolves.

 

Symptoms / Cause of error

• I have open a project group with ~20 projects in the list.
• I am debugging projectA
• I am looking at the source and the IDE prompts for recompile
• recompile happens but random projectB executes ( I had not debugged or compiled this program in days )
• no projects are active in the project group

 

Activate projectA and everything works fine again.

In tools options: "Automatic Saves" is on or off?

Autorecover is the only thing on, is there a QP report that makes you suspect that setting?

no that I know! but I always work with "saves..." OFF!

You answering a question with something from left field does not help others in the future, it just gives us more comments to try and filter through.

So did you just reply so that you can increase the number of posts on your profile?

Is there a "build event" set in any of these projects?  That would execute a background program upon a full build.

No build events, but good suggestion.

 

I built a new project group so I am testing.
