Applies to: Application object
Rebuilds a specified configuration by processing all files in the configuration, whether or not the files have changed.
Syntax
object.RebuildAll [configuration]
Parameters
object
An expression that evaluates to an Application object. When you use the RebuildAll method of the Application object, you can omit object because the name of the Application object is implied when you access its properties and methods.
configuration
(Optional) A string constant of type Configuration that specifies the type of configuration. Possible values appear in the Default Project Configuration box. The default value is Nothing.
Remarks
If you do not specify a configuration, Developer Studio rebuilds the default configuration. For example, if you specify Application.RebuildAll, Developer Studio rebuilds the default.
To find the appropriate configuration, first locate the project with that configuration by iterating through the Projects collection, using the Projects property of the Application object. Once you find the project, locate the appropriate configuration by iterating through the project's Configurations collection, using the Configurations property of the BuildProject object.
Example
The following example rebuilds each configuration in every build project:
Sub RebuildEveryConfiguration
Dim projCol
Dim configCol
Dim numProjects
Dim numConfigs
Dim i
Dim j
set projCol = Projects
numProjects = projCol.Count
For i=1 To numProjects
Dim proj
set proj = projCol(i)
If proj.Type = "Build" Then
set configCol = proj.Configurations
numConfigs = configCol.Count
For j=1 to numConfigs
Dim config
set config = configCol(j)
RebuildAll config
Next
End If
Next
End Sub
