Terminating out of run leaves .exe file busy [message #179533]

Whenever I prematurely terminate a C++ program that I am executing under
"run" the .exe file is left busy. This means:

1) I cannot rebuild the C++ program because I get the messages:

/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin /bin/ld: cannot
open output file Ged2Html.exe: Device or resource busy

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

make: *** [Ged2Html.exe] Error 1

make: Target `all' not remade because of errors.

2) I cannot even delete the .exe.

The only workaround I know for this is to shut down and restart Win XP.

Is there any easier way to get around this?

I am running: Version: 3.0.2, Build id: 200503110845

Looks like the process is still running, even eclipse doesn't show it.

Have you tried to find your program in the task manager?
Maybe you can terminate it with the task manager if it is still running,
and relinking should work.

btw: for a good task manager have a look at the process explorer from
sysinternals (www.sysinternals.com). Its free and very handy
