Long build time in VS2008 Mobile Application

Question

Lately testing my application becomes painful. When I hit F5 in debug configuration VS' building time increased. it takes 1-2 minutes to finish building. Even a slight code changes makes me mad :/.

My application uses OpenNETCF and Open Sans font for labels etc. When I started to develop this application it was 100-200kb and now its 800kb+. I don't know what makes the files size that big.

I searched how to trace log of build process in VS2008 but I couldn't find any resource. Is there a way to log building process in Milli Second results ?

Answer 1

As @rene told me I figure out how to see logs while building.

This link helped me out : How can the Visual Studio 2008 Build Command Line be seen?

and also While building Mobile application VS has "platformverificationtask" which is :

Platform Verification Task (PVT) is a post-build validation step to catch the unsupported PMEs before they can result in a runtime exception.

It makes building process longer. to disable pvt use this link : http://www.morkeleb.com/2011/02/21/disabling-platformverificationtask-for-compactframework-projects/
