VS 2005 builds entire solution instead of select project

Hi,

my VS is messing up... Suddenly, when I try building just one project
(selecting it, pushing right buttn, then build... as I always have
done) it builds the entire solution... It started behaving this way
suddenly, a couple minutes before it was ok and I didn't change
anything... What's wrong???

Right click your solution object and go to Properties. On the left panel,
select Configuration Properties and then Configuration. You should see a list
of all your projects here. Make sure there is a check mark in the Build
column for only the projects that you want to compile. For the ones you do
not want to compile, uncheck the box.

Remember that there are two ways to compile a project: as DEBUG and as
RELEASE. Depending on which setting you have selected you could have
different compile configurations so make sure you set it up for both cases.

Adrian.

This really is the worst Microsoft product I have ever had the misfortune to work with. After the excellent feattures and stability of VS.NET 2002 and 2003, I was confident enough to start a major project in beta 2 of VS 2005. But as I began to use the Beta I had major concerns about the product and every subsequent CTP and the RC did nothing to put ease my concerns. I even took out an MSDN universal subscription so I could begin using...

Hi, In my VS.NET 2005, if I choose Build Clean Solution, the BIN folder is not touched. Shouldn't it delete all the dll and pdb files in that folder first? Instead, I'm finding I have to do it manually. Also, when I change from Debug to Release, all the pdb files remain in the bin folder. Shouldn't these be deleted automatically? Please let me know what the "Clean Solution" is supposed to do (if it's

Does anyone have any idea why my 2005 solution is choosing to rebuild, everytime i execute any project within its space? There's nothing overly strange with the project assemblies within, a few class libraries, a couple of console apps, one custom setup project and one windows installer project. i've never seen this behavior before, and i've checked all the projects' settings that i can think of.

I was developing a large web site in VS 2005 as a web site project. I was having problems with the VS 2005 publish tool. It was slow, and provided no feedback. It has other issues as outlined below. Here is my solution. I converted the application from a Web Site Project (WSP) to a Web Application Project (WAP). Go to http://webproject.scottgu.com/ and read about the Web Application Project in VS 2005. Why?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
