Description Jim Adams CLA 2016-01-24 13:42:25 EST 
After cleaning a project and performing a build, the list of any dependent projects in the generated Makefile are specified with the 'clean' parameter which causes all projects in the list to be cleaned and rebuilt even if they have not had any changes. If the dependent list is large this causes the build to take a considerable amount of time. 

dependents:
	-cd C:/CDT/Workspace/testLib1/Debug && $(MAKE) clean all
	-cd C:/CDT/Workspace/testLib2/Debug && $(MAKE) clean all


Any subsequent build has the 'clean' parameter dropped from each dependent project.

dependents:
	-cd C:/CDT/Workspace/testLib1/Debug && $(MAKE) all
	-cd C:/CDT/Workspace/testLib2/Debug && $(MAKE) all
