Full re-build always happens after debug session

A project performs a full re-build after a debug session has been stopped and a fresh debug session is started although no files have changed. I am presuming that the project has been detected as changed but I haven't found out how to prevent this.

This causes problem when in debug/modify/debug mode as you change a single file and the whole project is re-built.

Steps to reproduce:

[list]
[*]* Build project
[*]* Debug project on target system
[*]* Stop debugger
[*]* Build project (all files are re-built)
[*]
[/list]

How can I prevent the project from being marked as changed after a debug session?

What happens if you build immediately after a build? i.e. is it anything to do with debugging, or is it something else?

I don't know whether this will help, but we had a similar report several year ago and this turned out to be because one of the files had

#include "..\file.h" /* notice use of Windows backslash */

And when it was changed to

#include "../file.h" /* use standard directory slash */

the problem went away.

I had no problems performing a build after a build - it was associated with performing a debug.

I changed my includes to use standard directory slashes and the problem has been solved.

Thanks for the excellent and quick help.
