FDT Tip: To Build Automatically Or Not



Once you start coding in FDT for a while, you may begin to realise that sometimes pressing Ctrl-F1 doesn’t bring up the quick fix. It kind of irritated me a little bit, and if it irritates you as well, allowing FDT to build automatically might just solve this.

Project -> Build Automatically
FDT Build Automatically Option

But wait, here’s a word of caution. I only recommend this if you’re building smaller projects, and that you did not use my code assist tip. The trouble that I encountered when my both my code assist is fully boosted and my projects are building automatically, is that the performance starts to go down. :(

One particular bad experience is that whenever I press enter on my code assist, not only does it _not_ completes my code, the editor jumps to the top of the page for no reason. After turning off the “Build Automatically” option, things were performing as they should again.

Ok, I hear you asking what shortcut key to press to build the project then?

That’ll be Ctrl-B, or Project -> Build All. ;)
