I've been developing a Native Code C++ tool. I code a little, then test a little. My workflow is to use the Keyin Browser to "mdl load test" (to load the tool); "test dosomthing" (to execute the tool); and "mdl unload test" (to unload the tool). Then I make changes, re-compile, and start the cycle over again. Now I've got a tool that I want to add to the ribbon, so I create my Workflow, Tab, Group, and finally Button. I assign the keyin to that button, and click the icon to launch the tool. When I want to make a modification, I "mdl unload test", and see that it is unloaded. However, when I next try to run BMAKE, I get:
"The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."
I am able to re-build the C++ parts (I'm using VS2015 to compile, not BMAKE) without issue. But when I try to run BMAKE to recompile the resources, BMAKE reports the "error" above. So, why isn't "unloading" a tool that was started from a ribbon button releasing itself completely? For the button, the keyin is of the format:
[test]test dosomething
It's the way I've always done the keyin string in V8i such that it will auto load if not already previously loaded. Is this approach no longer valid?
