Hi All,
I was just trying out the Target folders stuff in 2.8.4. The ALL_BUILD
target doesn't seem to be affected by the PREDEFINED_TARGETS_FOLDER
property.
Is that by design or an oversight?

I can try and take a look at it. I actually tried it in a hacky sort of

with 'cl /?' waiting on input. It shaved off several seconds with the

I need to use different link paths for Debug and Release builds of my

I don't believe this is possible. There was actually a discussion about
this, simultaneous to your question, regarding x86 and x64 builds in the

it is better to have an x86 build tree and an x64 build tree. There was

I'm trying to migrate an existing Visual Studio 8 2005 source tree to
