No I don't get the checkmark. But even when I touch all the source files
and do a recompile I get the same error.
I do have browser colouring on, and USUALLY once I've added the new resource
macros and recompile they change colour. But what I'm saying is occasionally
this doesn't happen; and if u load the GENERATED header and take alook u'll
see ALL the other macro's highlighted except the new one. In desperation
I've even copied and pasted the macro name to my source just to make sure
and it still doesn't work.
Before I've tried various things, such as recreating the project, going back
to previous resource builds etc. which sometimes work. Also, I'm almost
picking up a pattern, where if I do X then this problem will occur its just
that at the moment I can't pin X, nor a consistent solution down. Right now
the ONLY way I can get these resources to be recognised is to copy the
problematic resource macro definition(s) into the .c file.
any help would be greatly appreciated...
