Visual studio

Troubleshoot

Visual keeps rebuilding the whole project

To diagnose, set MSBuild verbosity at 'diagnostic' level [1]:

• Go to Tools → Options → Build and Run.
• Set MSBuild verbosity to Diagnostic.

Possible causes

• Missing or wrong PDB file.

This may be due to a mismatch between option /Fd in the compiler and option /PDB: in the linker.

Check the compiler and linker command-line to see if there is a mismatch.
