Following are actions you can take in the Builds window pane by clicking a button in the local toolbar. In most cases you can also right-click on a row and select one of these options from the context menu.
- Clear Finished This clears all rows from the Builds window pane.
- View Output This opens the output for the selected row if the target finished compiling without errors. You may need to click on the row (to first give the grid focus) in order to see this option in an enabled state. You can also double-click a row to open the output for a successful build. Depending on the type of output, you can select the device or browser you want to use to view the output from a drop-down menu.
- Open Build Log This opens the log file of the selected row so you can see more information about any issues with the build. You can also double-click a row to open the log file for a target that failed to build.
- Stop Build This cancels generation of the target. You will see yellow cells as a result.
- Rebuild Target This rebuilds the target for the selected row.
-
Build Targets This lets you build multiple targets
- You do not need to have a Flare project open at all in order to use this feature.
- You can select targets for any Flare project, even if that project is different from one you happen to have open at the moment.
-
This feature functions sort of like a batch target, in that you can choose to build and/or publish multiple targets. The difference is that, with this feature, you do not need to first create a batch target file in Flare Desktop.
Note Batch targets have their own advantages over this feature. For example, they allow you to retain your build and publish settings for each target, so that you can easily reuse them in the future. Also, you can schedule batch targets to run any time in the future, even if you're not at your computer.
- Open Output Folder This opens the output folder in Windows for the selected row.
- Clean Target This lets you remove the content from the output folder for the selected target.
