recompiling main.cpp each time

[bob-carpenter]

Summary:

When I run the latest develop version of cmdstan, it recompiles the main.cpp every time, but it should only have to be compiled once.

Description:

The main.cpp should only be compiled once, then re-used.

Reproducible Steps & Current Output

So this fails to compile the model, but what happens to the make.cpp compilation?

It just happens again. And remember "This might take up to a minute."

OK, this time it succeeded. Now let me change my program for abs and see what happens.

It still recompiles main.cpp.
