dumb C++ compiling problem (C1853)

[VJ]

Hello,

I recently started getting this error in Visual C++ when compiling my project:
fatal error C1853: 'Debug/myproject.pch' is not a precompiled header file created with this compiler

If I perform a "build clean", the file myproject.pch (fake name ) does not exist. Performing a "build all" works without errors. However, if I alter certain files, and then simply press "run", it should compile this file and run. But it gives this error instead. I can solve it by allways performing a build all, but it is time consuming.

Any thoughts on how I can solve this ? It only seems to happen with 2 files in the project (altering any of those 2 causes the problem).

Thanks !

There are no stupid questions, only stupid people.

What version of C++?

that would probably be Visual C++ .Net.

As far as precompiled headers go, i removed them from the configuration properties and deleted the files... never seen a reason to use them...

Oops, I forgot to mention: it is Visual C++ 6.0

There is a C-file (headerfile with matching c file) that is included (using the extern "C" command), but it did compile properly (without the warning) after including that file.
I think that C-file is the reason it *needs* a precompiled header.
