Incremental compilation not working

[dnesteruk]

I have a VS2013 solution with a couple of CPP/H files as well as a precompiled header which contains a lot: it has references to Boost, Intel libraries and more. My precompiled header is set up correctly on all files: it's set to Create on stdafx and Use on other files.

Now the problem I have is that, every time I go to Build Project, the entire thing gets built, using the precompiled header and all. This is not right, because stdafx.cpp should only be built once. And this problem is Parallel-XE-specific because Microsoft does it correctly.

You may take a look at below link regarding the differences of Intel compiler precompiled header support and see whether you hit one the cases.

Umm, no, I'm not hitting any of these cases and my problem is more fundamental: not so much with the generation of PCH but the fact it gets regenerated on every compile, even if I change a single symbol in one of the CPP files. This shouldn't be happening.

Hi dnesteruk,

Are you able to create a smaller test case (solution) that demostrates the problem?  We need something to reproduce it on our machine and then investigate.

Thanks.
