In Visual Studio, how do I rebuild a complete solution, including all configurations?
If I choose "Rebuild solution", it always rebuilds ONLY Debug or ONLY Release, but never both.
I don't see "Batch Build" - just the Build/Rebuild/Clean options. What choice are you referring to?

It is in the right click context menu of the solution, not in the property pages. :-)

I usually find it under the Build menu -- Build -> Batch Build... -- from there, check the configurations you want to build and invoke the build operation.

I don't have "Batch Build" in either of those locations - my choices seem to mirror what I see in VS2005, which I also have installed. It's not something I need to enable?

Make sure you right clicking on the solution... it definitely is there for me in VS2005.

I wonder if not all SKUs of VS have it?

I'll bet that's the case, though I'm MSDN Unlimited (or whatever they're calling it now) and have "Team System" installed, though I don't see this option. I'll have to look into it, though - I've wanted this feature before.

Interesting - I see that option on my home computer. I could have sworn I installed from the same media (and even the installed info is the same), but they have different SKU numbers...

Thanks. When I asked this question, I didn't have Batch Build anywhere in my Visual Studio. By now I've discovered the reason was this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1460459/visual-studio-configuration-manager-missing
