Hi,

I have a small problem, Visual Cobol for Eclipse 7.0 constantly compiles all sources although no changes have been made!?

The compile process takes forever...

Under Net Express there was the "Rebuild" and the "Rebuild All".

How can I tell Visual Cobol that it should only compile the changes and not everything!?

Hi Bernd,

The default build action for Visual COBOL for Eclipse is to automatically perform an incremental build of only the changed modules everytime you save a changed module or resource.

How are you building the project?
At what point are all the sources being recompiled?
Is this on Windows or Linux or using remote projects?
Are you compiling to native code or to managed JVM code?

There is a section in the documentation that covers IDE settings that can speed up performance if you have a large code base.
You can find it here:
