Visual studio, how to output time taken to build?


I'm using visual studio 2005. I remember in the back of my mind there's a way to output the time taken to build a given project.

Can anyone remember what that switch is?


Solution

  • Tools -> Options -> Projects and Solutions -> VC++ Project Settings -> Build Timing

    should work.

    EDIT: My bad, thats VS2008 :(

    In 2005 you might get the build times by changing MSBuild output verbosity to Detailed or Diagnostic from Tools -> Options -> Projects and Solutions -> Build & Run
