Important Notice
The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software,
purely for historical purposes.
If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming,
you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully
out of date.
Build Commands with Non-PWB Projects

For PWB projects, the Build and Rebuild All commands on the Project
menu always build the 'all' pseudotarget. However, for non-PWB
projects, the Rebuild, Rebuild All, and Build Target commands work
slightly differently.
If you have not yet used the Build Target command, the Build and
Rebuild All commands do not pass a specific target to NMAKE. This
causes NMAKE to build the first target in the makefile.
When you use the Build Target command, PWB uses the specified
targets for subsequent Build and Rebuild All commands. PWB does
this by redefining the _pwbbuild and _pwbrebuild macros to pass the
specified targets to NMAKE.
See: _pwbbuild, _pwbrebuild
