<div role="main"><h1>Autosaving on a build</h1>
<p>You can let Eclipse save modified files whenever you perform a manual build.
The files are saved before the build is performed so that the latest
version of your files is built. You can view the output of the make
utility in the Console view.</p>
<p>To save resources before manual builds:</p>
<ol>
<li>Click <strong>Window &gt; Preferences</strong>. </li>
<li>Select <strong>General > Workspace</strong> from the list.<br>
<img src="../images/workbench_prop.png" alt="Workbench Properties options window"></li>
<li>On the Workspace page, select the <strong>Save automatically before build</strong> check box.
<li>Click <strong>OK</strong>.</li>
</ol>
<p>Eclipse will now save your resources when you build a project.</p>
