Error: can't write application "intflash_d.afx"

[danielchai]

Hi All,

When I try to compile my project, it gives me error:

can't write application "intflash_d.afx"

mingw32-make:***[intflash_d.afx]Error 1

Any ideas about this?

Thank you.

Daniel,

this typically means that the file is locked by another process. Make sure nothing is using that .afx file. A common thing might be that the file is locked by the debugger (if you are still debugging).

Or that for whatever reason you do not have write access where you want to write the binary.

I hope this helps,

Erich

From time to time I have had to use Task Manager to kill off the debugger for this issue.
