You can create several build configurations for a solution. For example, you can configure a debug build that your testers can use to find and fix problems, and you can configure different kinds of builds that you can distribute to different customers.

Note

This topic applies to Visual Studio on Windows. For Visual Studio for Mac, see Create and edit configurations in Visual Studio for Mac.

Create build configurations

You can use the Configuration Manager dialog box to select or modify existing build configurations, or to create new ones.

To open the Configuration Manager dialog box, in Solution Explorer, open the shortcut menu for the solution and then choose Configuration Manager.

Note

If the Configuration Manager command doesn't appear on the shortcut menu, look under the Build menu on the menu bar. If it doesn't appear there either, on the menu bar, choose Tools > Options, and then in the left pane of the Options dialog box, expand Projects and Solutions > General, and in the right pane, select the Show advanced build configurations check box.

In the Configuration Manager dialog box, you can use the Active solution configuration drop-down list to select a solution-wide build configuration, modify an existing one, or create a new configuration. You can use the Active solution platform drop-down list to select the platform that the configuration targets, modify an existing one, or add a new platform. The Project contexts pane lists the projects in the solution. For each project, you can select a project-specific configuration and platform, modify existing ones, or create a new configuration or add a new platform. You can also select check boxes that indicate whether each project is included when you use the solution-wide configuration to build or deploy the solution.

After you set up the configurations you want, you can set project properties that are appropriate for those configurations.

Set properties based on configurations

To set properties based on configurations, in Solution Explorer, open the shortcut menu for a project and then choose Properties. You can set properties for your configurations. For example, for a release configuration, you can specify that code is optimized when the solution is built, and for a debug configuration, you can specify that the DEBUG conditional compilation symbol is included.

For more information about property page settings, see Manage project and solution properties.

Create a project configuration

  5. To use the property settings from an existing project configuration, in the Copy settings from drop-down list, choose a configuration.

  6. To create a solution-wide configuration at the same time, select the Create new solution configuration check box.

Rename a project configuration

  1. Open the Configuration Manager dialog box.

  2. In the Project column, select the project that has the project configuration you want to rename.

  3. In the Configuration drop-down list for that project, choose Edit.

    The Edit Project Configurations dialog box opens.
