Delphi Build

[DavidMacLean]

Delphi 5.0
Latest VisualBuild.

I set up a few packages into a single project step.

When I select "Build start", sometimes each package will be compiled, but mostly Visual Build just reports "Build successfully completed".

I am having trouble figuring out what makes it compile each step in the build. All checkmarks are on.

I put a syntax error into one of the source files, so the date/time stamps should kick in.

I just kind of hammer away in Visual Build and eventually it does compile everything and locate the error. But mostly not.
This must be very basic.... what am I missing please?

Right-click 'rebuild selected' does seem to force a recompile of a single package. But the same action (right click rebuild selected) on the group has no effect... ?

Thank you.
