Problem in creating executable file for package

We are trying to edit a inbuilt openni_tracker package but after editing, when we build the package using rosmake executable file is not getting created. What should we do for the executable file to get created?

  1. Did you get any errors?
  2. Did you add the new file (if you created a new one) to CMakeLists.txt?
  3. Did you check the tutorials?

No we didn't get any errors. And we had edit the existing C++ file itself.
