µVISION: File Changed Outside Editor Notification

Information in this article applies to:

• µVision Version 3 and later

QUESTION

I like having my source file and the listing file open at the same time. However, when I re-compile my source files, I receive the message:

File has been changed outside the editor, reload?

I ALWAYS want to reload changed files. Is there an option to automatically do this without asking me each time?

ANSWER

To allow µVision to always reload externally modified files, check the Automatic reload of externally modified files checkbox, in Edit - Configuration, Editor tab, File & Project Handling.
