Rebuilding workspaces and targets

When you make modifications to a target and need to update one or more libraries, you should use a rebuild option to update all the library objects in the correct sequence.

Working with targets

To see the pop-up menu that lets you perform operations on a target such as search, build, and upgrade, you must set the root of the System Tree or the view in the Library painter to the current workspace.

There are two methods to use when you rebuild a workspace or target:

  • Incremental rebuild

    Updates all the objects and libraries that reference objects that have been changed since the last time you built the workspace or target

  • Full rebuild

    Updates all the objects and libraries in your workspace or target

To rebuild a workspace:

  • Do one of the following:

    • Select Incremental Build Workspace or Full Build Workspace from the PowerBar.

    • Select the Workspace in the System Tree or Library painter and select Incremental Build or Full Build from the pop-up menu.

To rebuild a target:

  • Do one of the following:

    • Select the target in the Library painter and select Entry>Target>Incremental Build or Entry>Target>Full Build from the menu bar.

    • Select the target in the System Tree or Library painter and select Incremental Build or Full Build from the pop-up menu.
