Hi, 

I'd like to compile a function from within a procedure, and I'm using RESOLVE_ROUTINE for that:

pro test_pro
    resolve_routine, 'test_func', /is_function
    print, test_func(2)
end

However, this doesn't seem to be working... if I (1) open the function file (see below), (2) change the return statement to x^3, (3) close it without compiling it, and (4) run the procedure above again, it will continue to print "4".

function test_func, x
    return, x^2
end

I have no problems if I enter ".COMPILE test_func" at the command line. Any ideas?

Thank you

I faced this issue several times before I started to have the reflex
to always do a full reset before compiling
