Subject: Re: [llvm-dev] Windows build strangeness<br>
<br>
msbuild is is able to re-run cmake if a CMakeLists.txt changes. CMake adds a special project "ZERO_CHECK" that does this. However, I am not sure it runs when invoking on the individual projects instead of the solution.<br>
<br>
Try the cmake --build command, which should output the following:<br>
<br>
> cmake --build . --target opt<br>
CMake is re-running because<br>
C:/Users/Meinersbur/build/llvm/vc15_debug_x86/tools/polly/CMakeFiles/generate.stamp<br>
is out-of-date.<br>
