The changes are processed by CMake immediately and the project files are regenerated. However, VS 7.1 does not seem to reliably reload the new project files always. Try exiting VS and running CMake by hand and then reloading the project in VS after editing a file.

Brad,

Thanks for that info, and I'll add this that I dug up from an earlier post by Sylvain:

You are not compelled to close and reopen the entire solution.
In Tools-->Options-->Environment-->Keyboard set a shortcut for this 2 commands :
Project.ReloadProject
Project.UnloadProject
I'm used to set "Alt+shift+R" and  "Alt+shift+U"
Then you click on the project in the solution explorer windows and press your shortcut, it should work.
I hope it will save you some time.

Now for my own $.02 worth (which was perhaps obvious to most, but which I just figured out!):

You can't just 'Reload' a project.
You must first 'Unload' it.
Once unloaded, you can then 'Reload' it.

So, if you've added the keyboard shortcuts as above, the sequence would be:

"Alt+shift+U"        followed by        "Alt+shift+R"
