Project doesn't compile under Code::Blocks

[robheus]

I have a small C project involving several C source files. Code::Blocks can't compile it, due to unresolved function names. However when compiling and linking the same sources under the shell, it compiles and links ok.
How can I trace down this nasty error. I know the sources are ok and compile/link successfully, but why not under Code::Blocks.
NB. I developed the sources under Code::Blocks, and initially, this error did not happen. Only after some changes were made (refactoring functions, renaming and/or replacing them, etc.) this suddenly happened.

Some details:

The error reported that some function calls in Source A to functions declared in Source B do not get resolved.
However a couple of functions called from A and declared in B seem to be fine, and are not reported as unresolved.
I checked for misspellings and proper declarations (declared in A with full function prototypes as external, and declared and defined in B, including function prototypes as global function).

For example:

Source A:

Code Select Expand


//////////////////////////
extern void my_func_1(void);

......

int do_something(void)
{
       my_func_1();
}
////////////////////////


Source B:

Code Select Expand


//////////////////////////////

void my_func_1(void);

....

void my_func_1(void)
{
     /// function body/definition
}
//////////////////////


I checked for all functions called from A and defined in B that this syntax is used, but some of those functions can not be resolved, and others do.

This may happen when some object files are not updated. Try to Clean and then Rebuild the project.

Thanks for the hint, but already tried that several time (from Code::Blocks Build->Clean and by issuing rm -f *.o from the obj directory where Code::Blocks stores object files for the current Project target (Debug)).

Still, the same problem persists.
I know the problem is not in the code. Changes I make in the code in Code::Blocks is reflected correctly in the executable I make when compiling/linking manually, but Code::Blocks keep reporting unresolved references.

Should I perhaps remove/delete all Code::Blocks relevant files (except sources), and re-enter a new project from scratch with my source files????

Before you do this you can turn on full commandline logging and look if the compiler uses the same syntax with C::B then it uses from console.

To do this switch "Settings -> Compiler and Debugger... -> Global Compiler settings -> [the compiler you use] -> Other settings" (the rightmost tab) -> Compiler logging" to "Full command line".
