I'm in the process of migrating several applications from PB 10.5 to 2017. Migration is complete, and I am building test builds. 

I've started getting a message during build:

A Full build is required to be compatible with the source code. Do the build now?

This is DURING a full build. In addition, after receiving this message, the rebuild options are now greyed out in my project. 

After the first time I received this message, I deleted my project and re-created it, thinking that something didn't migrate correctly. After the first attempt to build, the build options are now grayed out in the new project. 

Can anyone tell me what is causing this behavior?

Hi George;

  This would occur if you do not have the Enable DEBUG Symbol option checked ...

  Once you have the Debug option on - you can set the rebuild to "incremental" which should stop that message.

HTH

Thanks. That makes sense. I've also started using #if defined DEBUG in my code, which seems to be responsible for the popup. 



What concerns me is the popup telling me that I need to do a full build shouldn't be required when the full build option is selected. Full build of an application with PFCs takes close to an hour. The prompt ensures that the build will not complete on its own if I go for coffee while I'm waiting.

You should submit that as a bug.
