Hello,
I have been sucsefully using FB in the past and now I am evaluating FB6 with VB6 projects in the new company and found few issues. I searched forum but could not find any answers.
1) Refresh button on the "Compile VB6 Project" \> "Project tab" does not work when using Variable in the "Project File". When Click Refresh I get next message: "%ProjectLocation%\Filename.VBP does not exist"
2) Is it possible to Refresh project on the run like using BeforeAction Script, so if there was a change to the VBP file the Refresh will sync FB's VB6 settings with actual VBP file. I have a lot of VBP and refresh them manually in the FB does not make any sense.
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,
Thanks very much for posting. We have a fix for issue (1) checked in, a test build with the fix will be available shortly.
With regards to issue (2), this isn’t possible at the moment. What project properties are you wanting to keep synchronized between VB and FB? Depending on what you need, we may be able to add a “use setting from project file” option to always use the VB project file setting for that particular property.
Regards,
Angus

Hi Angus,
Woow. Thanks for quick reply and fix on issue 1.
Is it possible to add "Do not set - use setting in project file" on Compile tab like you have it on Component Tab?
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,
Here is a test build with a fix for the Refresh issue, if you would like to try it out. An official update will be available shortly.
[https://www.finalbuilder.com/downloads/finalbuilder/600/FB600\_725.exe](https://www.finalbuilder.com/downloads/finalbuilder/600/FB600_725.exe)
I’ll add the “Use setting in project file” option to our to-do list to implement in a future release.
Regards,
Angus

Angus,
Thanks a lot for the test build. It works great.
Do have an estimate on when do you expect next Release?
What would you recommend as workaround for “Use setting in project file” option in the mean time? We have 30+ VBP and verify all of them manually for daily builds will take some time.
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,
We should be releasing a new official update sometime relatively soon, we’re just finalising and testing some new minor features.
Which settings are you expecting to change in the VBP which then need to be reflected in the FinalBuilder action?

Hi Angus,
I would expect that these 2 settings could be changed: CompilationType and OptimizationType
Thanks,
Alex
