Laz trunk/FPC trunk x86, Windows:

After a 2nd compile:
No changes:
- .ico timestamp
- .lpi timestamp

Still changes
- .res file
Diffing (a copy of) the original and new res files shows no differences

I fixed it by removing resource generation from DoBuildProject in main.pp.
AFAIK the resources have been always generated at that point. Is it so?
This must stay in trunk to test for possible regressions.

I improved this more in r59256. Now the resource file is not generated when a project is compiled.

I must reopen this. The project resource file is still generated every time the sources are modified and saved for compilation.
My optimization in r59256 was wrong and I reverted it in r59269.

I improved this a lot. Now the .res resource file is saved only when needed after the initial save after Lazarus IDE starts. Then the resource file can still be saved uselessly but only once.
