  • 0

I have two projects in my solution. I am currently using the default configuration mode which is ‘Debug’. When I want to do a ‘Release’ build, I switch to Release-mode and then I see all my previous projects properties are set to default, meaning I have to add all properties again manually to this mode.

Is there a convenient way to solve this in VS2010, for example to copy all properties like include paths, preprocessor macros, build macros, etc from ‘Debug’ to ‘Release’ mode?

    Configuration settings are stored in .vcproj / .vcxproj file. You could open it in some text editor and copy some settings manually, but it wouldn’t be convenient. For now you could just open projects properties and copy these settings while switching Debug / Release configuration in the upper left corner of that window.

    Next time when you are setting properties that are intended to be the same for all configurations, choose Configuration: All Configurations to avoid troubles.
