Visual Studio skips build

Asked 2008-12-13T20:08:45.757

When I try to build my project I get the following message in the build window :

========== Build: 0 succeeded or up-to-date, 0 failed, 1 skipped ==========

I tried rebuilding , then building again , but it doesn't help . Is there a way to view more detailed messages ? The "skipped" part doesn't give me any info on what's wrong . I am using Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition .

Yet another reason why this could happen (as it happened to me):

When your VS installation is missing x64 compiler toolchain, and you're building for x64.

To solve this, find MSVS in appwiz.cpl ("Programs and Features"), click "Uninstall/Change", then go to the x64 toolchain checkbox under C++ and check it.
