How to build projects in solution using DTE?

Question

I have three projects in solution and trying to build all the projects in solution by below code.

But it builds startup project alone.

var solutionBuilder = dte.Solution.SolutionBuild;

solutionBuilder.Build(true);

solutionBuilder.StartupProjects.Count returns one. There is no info about 3 projects in SolutionBuilder instance.

Is there any other way to build all the projects in solution?

You should look at this thread, it helped me. [how-to-get-notification-when-a-successful-build-has-finished][1] [1]: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2801985/how-to-get-notification-when-a-successful-build-has-finished — Yair Levi, Apr 27 '15 at 12:50

It would be helpful to know, if the projects have dependencies between each other.

If all else fails, you could always use something like this

DTE.ExecuteCommand("Build.RebuildSolution","")
