September 10th, 2004 10:23 PM Why compile in visual c++? I have
started to write c and c++ programs using the visual c++ IDE,
although I have no idea why visual c++ offers users the ability
to build and/or compile a piece of code, when building the code
in-order to debug the code creates an executable in the Debug
folder. I am fairly sure that there must be a reason for
offering users the ability to compile and/or build a piece of
code, and not just offering the build operation. Therefore if
anyone could inform me as to the use of having both operations
available in this IDE I would be grateful. Thanx in advance,
