Folks - we are suddenly (last few months) having a mysterious issue whereby PB refuses to make pcode-setting executables, though it will make machine exe's that work fine. This started with PB17 after awhile (but not initially that I remember) and I can reproduce this over and over. I have a whole screenshot sequence if it would help. Things I've tried:
- checkbox for pbd on/off on the app pbl. Makes all pbd's fine but won't make exe. When "Incremental" checked, it makes a shadow exe file, which disappears when you click on it, very weird
- both incremental and full build, same result
- deploy from either workspace or project itself (single project only in deploy preview), same result
- tried doing all of the above from both a network location and local drive, same diff
Are there any other issues filed describing this? This is a tiny 3-pbl app that has been in use forever and rebuilt many times, under PB17 and earlier PB12.x. Any input appreciated.
