1378.0. "MMS Rebuilds everthing when It shouldn't" by VERN::CARPENTER () Thu Mar 20 1997 17:14

	Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong in the mms file??

	It recompiles both the .bas files and relinks each time it is run.
	The object are inserted into the library and I leave then in the
work area.

	I'm running OVMS 6.2

-> set def MAXCIMV431:[MAXCIMV431.WORK]

When you invoke MMS, MMS checks the revision dates and times of targets and 
sources and decide when a target needs to be updated. In your description 
file the executable image, MAXCIM.EXE depends on one Object library 
[MAXCIMV431.LIB]MAXCIMV4.OLB and two object entries: MAXCIM.OBJ, APACCRUAL.OBJ.

Because of the SET DEFAULT in the .FIRST directive, MMS action lines know 
where to put the object files. However, because the action lines are executed 
in a subprocess, the default directory of the main process is unchanged. When
MMS checks its dependencies, it expects the object files to be in the default 
directory of the main process and fails to find them, so MMS will recompile 
and relink the application every time it is invoked.
                                                                  

There are some ways to avoid this problem:

1. In description file, specify where the object file is located in dependency
   rules. 
2. set default to the directory containing the object files before invoking MMS.
3. set default to a search list that includes the directory containing the 
   object files, again prior to invoking MMS.
