Its really as simple as comparing the current binary to the sourcecode using
<uptodate> and only building a project if needed?
I do that in my own builds. We have a tool that builds a database packager. I
only build a new packager exe if any of the SQL schema source files have newer
dates than the current packager exe.
As a matter of fact, most compiler has a built in mode that will do this, don't
they?

Thanks, but I don't have time to delve into yet another tool now, though I did
d/l the app and perused through it a little.
One thing that will help is if I can setup a nant target that checks for
modifications on a certain folder, similar to the filtered <sourcecontrol>
element of ccnet.

CI Factory's scripts do this. IIRC he creates a text file with any changed
files to determine if the project needs to be built. While I don't use CI
Factory anymore I got several ideas from it and learned quite a few nant
tricks. Even if you don't use it, setting it up and looking at the scripts is
quite eye opening.

This is a common architecture so I'm hoping someone's done this before.
Say I have a Windows project with 2 components, each component in its on
directory, like so:
ProjectA
Component1
File1.h
File1.cpp
File1.sln
Component2
File2.h
File2.cpp
File2.sln
I only want to build a component if a file changed in its corresponding folder.
This entails that I have to:
- Check for changes in the component directory with our SCM tool
(sadly, Starteam in our case)
- If changes exist, check out the changes
- Build the solution file
Then if and only if ALL components build, I do
- Check in files
- Label files
