    <blockquote> <p>Is there a way to simply tell VS to build only projects where some changes were done and projects which are dependent on changed ones (preferably this part as another build option)? I worry you will tell me that it is exactly what VS is doing but in MS way ...</p> </blockquote> <p>Not really (you understand it already).</p> <p>You are talking about a "build system". MSVS is not that. It is an IDE, which happens to permit you to organize your assets into projects-and-solutions, and yes, to "build". But, it is not a build system. It will never be a build system (long story, but a very different technology is required).</p> <p>In contrast, MSVS is an IDE for accelerated iterative development, including the "debugging" cycle (e.g., "step-into" and "step-over" in the debbugger during system run). That's where MSVS "shines".</p> <p>It does not, and will never, "shine" as a build system. That's not what it was created to do. And, this will likely never change (long story, even Microsoft will likely agree).</p> <p>I'm not trying to be cute, and I sincerely apologize for delivering this news. This answer hurts me too.</p> <blockquote> <p>I expect working incremental compilation of solutions. Especially in product like VS 2010 Ultimate which costs several thousands dollars.</p> </blockquote> <p>MSVS is an IDE for interactive debugging/development, and not a build system (see above). So, you are measuring it in a product scenario for which it was not designed, and in which it will likely <em>never</em> function as you desire.</p> <blockquote> <p>I really don't want to get answers like:</p> <ul> <li>Make a separate solution</li> <li>Unload projects you don't need</li> <li>etc.</li> </ul> <p>I can read those answers . Those are not acceptable solutions. We're not paying for VS to do such compromises.</p> </blockquote> <p>Your expectations are reasonable. I want them too. However, MSVS is not a product that will ever deliver that.</p> <p>Again, I'm not trying to be "cute". If you are willing to invest in a "build system", you may find value in using something like <a href="http://www.cmake.org/">CMake</a> to manage your configurations and export <code>Makefiles</code> (or something) to perform your "real" builds, but to also "export" <code>*.vcproj</code> and <code>*.sln</code> files for when you want to do work iteratively and interactively within the MSVS IDE.</p> <p><strong>EDIT:</strong> Rather, what you want is a SSD (solid-state-disk) for your build workspace to get a 10x improvement-in-speed, or a RAM disk for a 100x improvement-in-speed for builds (not kidding, 64MB RAM on an LGA2011 socket gives you a 32MB RAM disk, which is what we use.)</p>

    1. COThis is something I recognized today when reading answers from others. In short I expected that expensive product like VS should have some meaningful integration with build engine running on behind (MSBuild) but it appears there is none - it just run it without sharing any contextual information. What I only want is a system where changing few lines in single file will not result in delay caused by checking thousands of files on disk (as described in some comment).

    3. CO@Ladislav -- 2x?? Ouch. We're still configuring ours, so I don't have solid benchmarks yet, but we're trying (1) RAM disk for only intermediates (*.obj/*.pdb/*.dll/*.exe/etc.) and (2) For the whole workspace (including all source). From reviews on the web, configuration and the RAM disk software used can make a big difference (we are currently only trying to work with Gillisoft, but there appear to be a number of good ones available).

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
