I have noticed this before but hadn't posted it until now.
After using the batch cleanup function to delete all *.ecl files and then running eCompile with the command line to compile all scripts under the POL directory I get the following summary message after eCompile finishes:
Code:
Compilation Summary:
Compiled 1125 scripts in 195125 ms.
542 scripts were already up-to-date.
I find it odd that 542 scripts would be up to date if all the ecl files were deleted prior to compiling. Am I not understanding the information being given me by eCompile? I thought that an up-to-date script was one whose ecl file matched what eCompile would have created if it had compiled the scripts src file. If so how can a non-existant ecl file be up-to-date?
Anyway, this is a strange message and I figured I'd mention it.

Is the generation of *.dep files activated in your compiler configuration?
And if so, did you also delete the old *.dep files prior to compiling?
