Topic updated 9-7-2007

The Project Explorer uses different text colors to indicate the state project items are in. Using the default colors, text color has the following meaning:

 

black

Normal item color

The item is up-to-date.

dark red

Needs generation

The item needs to be regenerated, the item has changed since it was last generated.

red

Item under generation

The item is being generated.

gray

Excluded from build

Source code is generated for the item, but it is not compiled.

silver

Excluded form generation

No source code is generated for the item.

 

These colors can be changed in the GenWise IDE Options window, where they are options under the GenWise Framework - Project Items node.
