One of the projects in my Visual Studio Solution constantly thinks it needs to be rebuilt. How can I tell why this is the case? I prefer to be able to do this without having to use a command line, but will do so if I must. A long time ago, I used a debug mode in gnu's make to get this sort of information. I was sure I had made notes about doing this with some sort of output logger and with changing a setting somewhere, but I cannot find the notes, and may simply be miss-remembering.

Do you have "phantom" files (files that are not referenced) in your visual studio solution ? for example, a unreferenced header file entry in the solution, but the file is not on disk ? – Max Mar 13 '14 at 16:03

Looks like this has already been answered, see: Visual Studio: project is not up to date "because "AlwaysCreate" was specified"? And see the answer about setting "CPS" to log this kind of info, and then using DebugView to see it.
