Generate code after update or modify design with TouchGFX.

[vincent.philippe]

Hi Martin,

I develop one application with touchGFX 4.13 and Keil for dedicated board based F429 (like EvalBoard).

Sometime, it 's seem that when I modify (suppress one text area or change the name ID etc..) my design screen with TouchGFX, I press "Generate Code" button, the status bar display "done" , but the generated code file.cpp is not updated. I don't know exactly when this update is not done ( on which criteria) ...

What I miss about this point?

Thks & rgds.

That should never happen. I think you'll have to be more systematic in showing me this scenario, using screenshots, git, etc.

Hi Martin,
Thanks a lot for this quick reply !
I’ve worked around this problem and maybe I find one clue…
In fact , Keil is open with the C++ project in the during time that TouchGFX project.
The generated files are flagged in read-only :
[cid:image002.png@01D60834.65011660]
(But in my opinion is not really the problem , because the .hpp file is not in read-only…)
1/ In touchGFX , I suppress one object for example one TEXT AREA,
2/ Generate code
3/ I switch to Keil (already open)
4/ TextKeysAndLanguages.hpp updated OK BUT
Startupscreenview.cpp and .hpp NOT !
So Build error because in my case the enum “T_SINGLEUSEID13�? doesn’t exist anymore in :
boardConfigDEB.setTypedText(touchgfx::TypedText(T_SINGLEUSEID13));
5/ Close Keil project,
6/ Just a “little touch�? in my touch project (for example update the Text in one TEXT AREA.
7 Generate code
8/ Re-open the project KEIL
9/ All is now OK the files are updated.
Rgds

​Hi Martin , Not really update about this problem.. I work with it.... Workaround --> I close KEIL when I Generate the TouchGFX code :( .

And in you side, do you try it ?
