[BUG] Compile Clear

[Yamaeda]

LV2011, though i suspect it happens on a lot more versions.

LV Clears the target location of a Build _after_ the compile itself, which just so happened to take 20 mins just to fail ... R-clicking the Build and selecting Clear also failed, thus it was some sort of file access error. I could clear the target manually and then succeed with the Build.

Errors like this should ofcourse happen immidiatly as to not waste time and the solution is easy, Clear in the beginning of the Build.

I'd call it a Bug, or very stupid design, take your pick. 🙂

Hah!  I never tried the "clear" option (always manually deleted the target) just because i was afraid of something exactly like this.

Call it a bug.  In fact, a known issue with 2011.  One I even reported to the monthly bug thread way back with a CAR generated by a SR from my SSP.  You did find the correct work around! Manually clear the build before rebuilding.  For 2012 and 2013 I would need to dig.  I personally know it was fixed by 2014 initial release.
