Hi, Christophe,

To work around this, you can redefine the VARIANT_TAG macro used by the
recursive makefiles to compute the output binary name.  This macro filters
out the EXTRA_SILENT_VARIANTS, so the redefinition just removes that filter.

Insert the following between the inclusion of qmacros.mk and
.qnx_internal.mk:

# Redefine the variant tag to exclude the EXTRA_SILENT_VARIANTS
VARIANT_TAG=$(subst $(space),,$(foreach var,$(filter-out
$(silent_variants),$(all_variants)),-$(var)))$(foreach var,$(filter g,
$(VARIANT_LIST)),_$(var))$(foreach var,$(filter shared, $(VARIANT_LIST)),S)

(the VARIANT_TAG definition should all be on one line)

The resulting makefile should look like the example I attached.  The IDE
will continue to overwrite the EXTRA_SILENT_VARIANTS, but it will not
disturb the VARIANT_TAG definition.

I have logged the issue internally in our database.  Thanks for the report!

Cheers,

Christian
