Disabling Compilation for a Filesystem

You can disable compilation on a mounted filesystem. This feature is particularly useful if you mount a large library to browse its sources. If compilation is disabled for the library, it is not recompiled every time you compile an application that is dependent on that library.

To disable compilation for a filesystem:

  1. In the Explorer, select the Filesystems tab.
  2. Right-click the filesystem's node and choose Properties from the contextual menu.
  3. In the Properties window, choose the Capabilities tab.
  4. Set the Use In Compiler property to False.
Tip Capabilities settings apply to entire filesystems. However, you can prevent compilation of individual sources in a filesystem. Open the source's property sheet and click the Execution tab. Change the source's Compiler property to Do Not Compile.
