Run a build in parallel with other operations

2.8.3 Run a build in parallel with other operations

CS+ can automatically start a build when one of the following events occurs (hereafter referred to as "rapid build").

-	When any one of the following files that are added to the project is updated: (C source file, assembly source file, symbol address file, header file, object file, relocatable file, and library file)

-	When a build target file has been added to or removed from the project

-	When the link order of object module files and library files is changed

-	When the property of the build tool or build target file is changed

If a rapid build is enabled, it is possible to perform a build in parallel with the above operations.

To enable/disable a rapid build, select [Rapid Build] from the [Build] menu. A rapid build is enabled by default.
