VC++ Build, Projects, Options Dialog Box

This dialog box allows you to select whether you want the builds of your Visual C++ projects to produce build logs or to time the build process.

Build Logging

True

False

Turns off generation of the build log file.

Build Timing

True

Turns on build timing. If selected, the time it takes for the build to complete is posted to the Output window.

False

Turns off build timing.

C/C++ File Extensions

Specifies the extensions of files that will be built with the C or C++ compiler.
