Many thanks for replying George, and I  checked  the 'all 
dependencies in makefile' option  as you suggested  and asked 
RHIDE to rewrite the makefile (Project Write Makefile) however 
make ( make -f test.mak ) when run on the newly generated 
makefile still won't aknowledge that test.h has been changed and 
recompile test.cpp. It still gives the same message 'nothing to be 
done for "all"' and exits although test.h has been modified.
What is going on?  Am I doing something wrong?
My version of RHIDE is 1.4.
Please help me.
Thank's to all of you.
