A project configuration consists of settings that determine the characteristics of the final output file for a project. When you create a new project configuration for a project, it is based initially on the settings from an existing project configuration that you select. Options you select for the new configuration, such as the platform, may modify those initial settings. The new project configuration always uses the same set of files as the configuration on which it is based.

What do you want to do?

Prevent a file from being built in a configuration

To create a project configuration

  1. On the Build menu, click Configurations.

  2. In the Configurations box, select the project to which you want to add a configuration, and click Add.

    You can also directly select the configuration on which you want to base the new configuration, for example, Win32 Debug.

  3. In the Add Project Configuration dialog box, type a unique name for the new configuration.

  4. On the Copy Settings From drop-down list, select the configuration from which the new configuration copies its initial settings.

  5. On the Platform drop-down list, select a platform for the new configuration.

    You can select the same platform as the project on which you are basing the new one if you want merely a variation of the existing settings.

  6. Click OK and then Close.
