- checked, the build process will build with whatever tools are defined in your environment.</p>

- <tr>
- <td><b>Run builds concurrently (improves compile time) </b></td>
- <td><p>Enable to tell Carbide to generate concurrent builds up to the amount specified in the Build jobs field. This option can significantly reduce build times as it takes advantage of multi-core processors and hyperthreading to run multiple threads at once. </p>
- <p>If not enabled, only a single build is run. Note that this may be required if your project contains circular dependencies or other issues that prevent concurrent builds from executing correctly. </p></td>

- <ul>
- <li>Level 0 (<span class="code">abld clean</span>) - removes all the intermediate files created during compilation, and all the executables and import libraries created by the linker</li>
- <li>Level 1 (<span class="code">abld reallyclean</span>) - performs a <span class="code">clean</span> operation, but also removes all exported files and makefiles</li>
- <li>Level 2 (<span class="code">abld reallyclean</span>, <span class="code">bldmake clean</span>) - performs a <span class="code">reallyclean</span> operation and then removes all files created by bldmake</li>

- <tr>
- <td><p class="style4">Manage dependency tracking (improves build speed) </p></td>
- <td><p>Enable to have Carbide manage the dependency tracking for source and resource files. Carbide does this by separating out the generation of dependency information from the makefile and managing the entire process. All builds now can quickly compare whether new dependency information is required due to changes in a source file and only build those that need updating. </p>
- <p>If not enabled, the Symbian OS command line build system handles all dependency tracking by generating the dependency information in the makefiles. Because it does this for all project files, regardless of the number of changes, it can result in a performance penalty. A single edit in a MMP file forces a complete regeneration of the makefile dependency information for all project files. </p> </td>

- <td><p><strong>Show a dialog to modify build actions when modified MMPs are detected </strong></p></td>

- <li>None</li>
- <li>Link Only</li>
- <li>Compile and Link</li>
- </ul> </td>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td><strong>Do not offer to track dependencies for projects build on command-line </strong></td>
- <td>If you build a project from the command-line (with 'abld build') and then import the project into Carbide and attempt to build, Carbide will ask if you would like Carbide to manage source dependencies for you. Enabling this option insures Carbide will not ask you to manage dependencies (they will be done as normally done via 'abld build' command).</td>
