| A build command compiles workbench resources. A build command can be triggered in different ways: |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| Building automatically: If auto build is turned on |
| (<strong>Project > Build Automatically</strong>, or with the |
| <a class="command-link" href='javascript:executeCommand("org.eclipse.ui.window.preferences(preferencePageId=org.eclipse.ui.preferencePages.Workspace)")'> |
| <img src="PLUGINS_ROOT/org.eclipse.help/command_link.png"> |
| <strong>General > Workspace</strong></a> preference page), then an |
| incremental build occurs every time you save a modified workbench resource. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Building manually: You can perform a manual build using a keyboard shortcut, a project's pop-up menu or the <strong>Project</strong> menu in the menu bar. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
