I typically end up with solutions that include multiple projects.
Typically, I do the main runtime in one project with all the helper classes in a second one. This allows me to separate the UI from the application code.
Lately, I've noticed that, if I make a change to one of the projects -- either one of the helper ones or the main exe one -- I have to do a clean and rebuild *every time* to pick up the change.
All the dependencies and build dependencies are right, I think, but studio doesn't seem to be realizing that it has to rebuild.
When I first installed studio, this wasn't an issue. It seems to have gotten worse with use.
It's actually kind of a pain, since I'm used to hitting <crtl>-<shift>-b to do my rebuilds. If I do that now, it basically does nothing, so I don't pick up my changes. If I right click on each project and do a clean->rebuild, it works, but it's not only a pain, it's easy to forget or miss things.
I did a little searching but i'm not seeing anyone else with this issue?
Am I the only one having it?
Is there something I can do to stop it?
thanks for any help
I'm using studio 2008 professional SP1.
