Subject': AR#1736, BRECOMPILE calls markaschanged when it shouldn''t'
To': JonL'
'
This is not a general problem with BRECOMPILE, but it is a problem with some unknown forms calling DWIMARKASCHANGED when being DWIM-translated even when the form is legit. I haven''t tracked it down. If you UNDO the compile and break MARKASCHANGED and then redo the compile, you might be able to help track down who is marking what as changed when.'
'
In the meanwhile, I''m marking AR#1736 as Incomplete.'

Description: BRECOMPILE a file with the ST option of "F" -- notice that a function in the DEdit window will be "markedaschaged" and "wiped" from the DEdit window, even though the compilation doesn''t really affect it..
