NMake Property Page

The NMake property page lets you specify build settings for Makefile projects. (NMAKE is the Microsoft implementation of Make.)

For more information about Makefile projects, see Creating a Makefile Project. For non-Windows Makefile projects, see Makefile Project Properties (Linux C++), General Project Properties (Android C++ Makefile) or NMake Properties (Android C++).

The property page contains the following properties:

General

  • Build Command Line

    Specifies the command to be run when Build is clicked on the Build menu.

  • Rebuild All Command Line

    Specifies the command to be run when Rebuild All is clicked on the Build menu.

  • Clean Command Line

    Specifies the command to be run when Clean is clicked on the Build menu.

  • Output

    Specifies the name of the file that will contain the output for the command line. By default, this file name is based on the project name.

IntelliSense

  • Preprocessor Definitions

    Specifies any preprocessor definitions that the source files use. The default value is determined by the current platform and configuration.

  • Include Search Path

    Specifies the directories where the compiler searches for include files.

  • Forced Includes

    Specifies files that the preprocessor automatically processes even if they aren't included in the project files.

  • Assembly Search Path

    Specifies the directories where the .NET Framework searches when it resolves .NET assemblies.

  • Forced Using Assemblies

    Specifies assemblies that the .NET Framework automatically processes.

  • Additional Options

    Specifies any extra compiler switches for IntelliSense to use when it parses C++ files.
