Graph Node States

 

 

 

 

 

ColorMeaning

 

 

 

 

 

 

Blue

Up-to-date—the target or intermediate file does not

 

 

 

need to be built.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Red

Out-of-date—the files from which the target or

 

 

 

intermediate file is derived have changed and the

 

 

 

node needs to be rebuilt.

 

 

 

 

 

 

White

Not buildable—the file is not an appropriate build

 

 

 

target; source files and include files are not

 

 

 

buildable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Grey

Non-existent—the file does not currently exist on

 

 

 

the file system.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Within SoftBench, actions which change a node's status cause the graph

 

to update automatically. To update the display of graph nodes if you

 

make changes to the files in the project from outside of SoftBench, choose

 

"Graph: Update Status of Nodes".
