RE: Dependency problems

Steven,

The C++ is unmanagaged.
I know that the project is being rebuilt because I see the output in the
Output window. I watch it compile and link the entire C++ project.

Is there a way to discover the reason that the project got rebuilt?

Hi Gak,

From your description, you have a solution which contains mutiple
projects(some .net ones and a C++ one). The C++ project has no dependency
on other projects, however, you found that project always get built
whenever you change other projects and build the solution, correct?

As for the C++ project, is it a native unmanaged c++ project or managed c++
one? I've performed a simple test through a solution with .NET projects and
a simple empty c++ project. It seems when build the project as long as the
c++ project has no change, it will not be built.

Also, for .NET projects, I know that as long as the project has not been
changed, it will not actually be built when you build the solution(no
matter it is referenced by anther project). How do you notice that the
project is built, are you checking the file update date of the output file
or anything else?

Sincerely,

I'm building a solution with both C++ and C# projects. The C++ project is
a
library that many of the projects are dependent upon, but it does not
depend
on the other libs. It is constantly being built every time any of the
other
projects change although nothing in it is changing.

What can I look at to determine why this is happening?
How can I stop this this behavior?
