<h1>Building Manually</h1>
<p>Manual builds let you choose the scope of a build, as well as
options for building, or rebuilding projects. You can view the output
of the make utility in the console.</p>

<dl>
<dt>Incremental Builds</dt>
<dd>To incrementally build all open projects, you can select <b>Project
&gt; Build All</b> or type <b>CTRL+B</b>.</dd>
<dt>Build Individual Projects</dt>
<dd>To build individual projects click <b>Project &gt; Build Project</b>.</dd>
<dt>Rebuild Projects</dt>
<dd>To rebuild a project right click on the project and select <b>Rebuild
Project</b>.<br>
<b>Note: </b>This will rebuild projects that this project
references as well, but will not rebuild projects that references this
one.</dd>
<dt>Build Automatically</dt>
<dd>This performs a Build All whenever any project file is saved,
such as your <tt>makefile</tt>. <br>
<b>Tip: </b>For C/C++ projects, this feature should be turned off.
If there is a checkmark beside <b>Build Automatically</b> the feature
is on. To turn it off, select <b>Build Automatically</b>.</dd>
</dl>
<p><b>Tip: </b>If you get the error message:</p>
<p><samp>Exec error:Launching failed</samp></p>
<p>then CDT cannot locate the build command, (usually <samp>make</samp>).
Either your path is not configured correctly or you do not have <samp>make</samp>
installed on your system.</p>
<p><b>Tip: </b>The menubar item <b>Project &gt; Build Working Set</b>
submenu for C/C++ projects simply creates a link to the build all
target as defined in your makefile, and is no different from an <b>Incremental
Build</b>.</p>
