Lets we have too files in our Managed C Project 'Executable (Gnu on Windows)':

1. foo.c:
#include "foo.h"
int main () {return 0;}

2. foo.h:
#ifndef  _FOO_H_
#define _FOO_H_

#endif

Assume that our project already was built. Now insert in foo.h following string:
#include "missing.h"

Note: file missing.h doesn't exist.

When foo.h is saved foo.c would be recompiled (that's correct). Now we have project with an error. Then fix the error: just remove '#include "missing.h"' from foo.h and save it. Well, foo.c IS NOT recompiled because foo.d is empty now and foo.o still exists!
