Enhanced Build Settings If you are using Visual C#, you can take advantage of more build settings easily available in the Visual Studio 2005 Project Designer. Using the Build and Build Events panes, you can specify build settings and events to control your project's build configuration properties. You can specify conditional compilation symbols, define the DEBUG and TRACE symbols, specify the platform target you are building for, and choose whether to optimize your code compilation and whether to allow unsafe code. You can also manage warning and error settings, and configure output files. Clicking the Advanced button on the Build pane gives you access to even more build settings including language version and advanced output options.
