Hi Simon
It definitely isn’t expected behaviour. MSVC should do exactly the same. It seems to point to a problem in your CMake files or elsewhere. Does the same thing happen if you just build immediately? Obviously, you shouldn’t do “rebuild” but just “build”. I haven’t checked RTK. Sorry.

This works perfectly under linux with makefiles. However, the behavior is not the same under MSVC and since I am not used to this IDE, I'd like some explanation. When I have a problem with a compilation and I open the nightly configured MSVC project in the IDE, then everything is recompiled, including those files that compiled without any issue. Is this an expected behavior and, if yes, is there any way to recompile only what has failed, as I am used too under linux? I hope this is clear (enough). Thanks, Simon
