Synopsis: Feature call on void target in {TMP_AST_SERVER}.body_force in EiffelStudio.

Description
Project loaded: True
Project compiled: True
Is compiling: False
Last known class processed: AT_HINT_TABLE
Last status message: Degree 4: Analyzing Inheritance (6/7): AT_HINT_TABLE

What I did: restricting the visibility of some features in a COMMON class containing several constants and utility functions. This seems to be reproduceable:. I did it once -> exception. Restarted EiffelStudio, compile ->exception. Did a clean compile and it worked. Then restricted the accessibility of some more features -> exception again.

Sorry, this is already the second time I get fooled like this, I select the file and then don't hit "Upload".

Here it is.

Great. Could you attach the backup?

From:paolanto    Date:2014/07/04    Download   
Done.

I found that changing accessibility is enough, this time I changed the same 'feature {NONE}' clauses to 'feature {AT_COMMON}' and got the same exception.

Could you reproduce it but this time enabling the advanced option: Automatic Backup before the first compilation?

Then send us the copy of the BACKUP folder from your EIFGENs/project subdirectory.
