Attributes

Remarks

When a project is built, numerous support files can be generated by the compiler, such as, .idl files, .obj files, and so forth. The Clean method deletes all such files from all projects that are marked for build, returning the project to a state similar to never having been built.

To mark a project to be built, use the ShouldBuild.
