Build

This command builds only those aspects of your application that require building, such as web pages, Presentation Layer code, Data Access Layer code, and SQL queries and stored procedures.  Generally, only those portions of your application affected by changes made since your application was last built will be built.

Rebuild All

The Build All and Run command forces the regeneration of all an application’s web pages and associated code files.

The Build command typically regenerates only the specific pages or components that have been changed.  It functions much like a “Make” tool.  Effectively, “Build All and Run” is a "make all" option.  Iron Speed Designer determines which files are changed and which files have not been changed based on the date/time stamp of the files, exactly like a Make tool.  Use Build All and Run in cases you would like to do a fresh build of the entire system.

In general, you should only need to use this option in one of these situations:

• You manually modified or deleted any of an application’s ASPX, ASCX, or source code files (but not the layout page files) and you want to recreate them.

• You manually added or deleted a component’s properties file in an application’s folder.

Note that customizable class files will never be overwritten, even when you "Build All and Run".

Run Application

This command runs an application.
