After reading this thread I ask myself what is wrong with always compiling and
linking the project?
I can speak only for myself but most of the time I invoke 'run' I want my
project to be rebuild since I know something changed (I am inside an IDE and
doing some coding, after all).
If I know that nothing changed and I just want to run the last compiled binary
my terminal is just a short-cut away so no problems there.
If it is such a great problem to start your program from somewhere else then
there could be an option like 'run last compiled binary' and Lazarus just runs
that with the developer deciding if something changed (he should know).
All in all I just do not see the benefits in Lazarus knowing if it has to
compile and link the project or not, especially if it is that hard to get the
needed information.
Perhaps someone can enlighten me and tell me the benefits.
I can't.
Especialy for this, I added some options on when to compile a while ago.
If one unchecks the compile on run, everything is almost solved. One
usually knows when sources are changed, so in that case one can do a
manually build before run.
I agree with MvC that there are other things to invest time for.
