How to Release a .APP that has been run from the IDE?
In the FoxPro IDE, I have a tool that is a .APP file. Whenever I have run the tool once in a session, and then exit the App (but I remain in the FoxPro IDE), then FoxPro still seems to have the .app file opened, or locked, or something.
The result of this is, for instance, I cannot "DELETE FILE MyTool.app" from the command window, nor can I rename or delete the .app file from a Windows Explorer window. In both cases, I get an access denied error. Again, this true even after I exit the .APP (but, again, I still remain the FoxPro IDE). Don't ask why I want to delete it, just believe me that I need to.
This proves that FoxPro still has a lock on the file, even after quiting the .app. The only way I have have to free it is to exit FoxPro. Only then can I delete the .app file.
So, how can I tell the FoxPro IDE to "Release" this file?
I tried RELEASE ALL, but that does not worlk.
Any ideas?
