"build" only builds changed projects (and projects that depend
on them), "rebuild" builds everything.

A second difference is that "rebuild" updates the xml-documentation
files and "build" doesn't.

In general terms:
Build selectively builds only those parts of a project or solution
(depending on which Build you select) that have changed since the last
build. Rebuilds everything, whether or not it changed.
If you're doing simple stuff like classroom demos, the choice makes little
difference, but if your have a large solution/project, the selective Build
can be a big time saver.

If I create a new C# Web Project in Visual Studio and add this to the Page_Load method for WebForm1: Response.Write("firsttime"); then hitting F5 to debug the project of course shows the WebForm with "firsttime" on the page. But if I then change it to Response.Write("secondtime") and hit F5, the changes don't take effect -- the WebForm still opens and displays

I'm using Visual Studio 2005 RC and cannot figure out how to produce a "release" build. Am I doing something wrong? I'm wondering if perhaps MS locked out the ability to produce a release build when using the RC since it does not have a go-live license? Or maybe I'm just doing something wrong. I do not want to go live with a release build. Rather I just want to test locally to see if there is a performance difference and also to...

I just put C# express editiion on my son's computer so he can learn how to code, and we've run into a weird problem. Whenever he makes a change to his code and hits F6 (build) the IDE reports that the build succeded. However, when he runs the program (Start without debugging), the new build IS NOT being run. He has to actually choose Build|Rebuild Solution from the menu for the new build to run. Just building with F6, or running with...

Am I missing something obvious in the 2005 Visual Studio portion of SQL Server?

I installed the guidance package projects (smart devices, web client and service model projects). I tried them out and found they aren't for me.

If I remove the web deployment projects then the build completes without complaining. When I recreate the web deployment projects...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
