.ncb and .pch file
-
Hi all :) I have a project, created in VS2005. When I enter its directory, inside I have 2 files and 3 folders :
Debug, MyProject, Release, MyProject.ncb, MyProject.slnStrange is thatMyProject.ncbis 16 MB in size. And other files(folders), together are only 4 MB(If I clear the debug and release folders). Strange is also thatMyProject.pchfile is 12MB, when Debug folders of my project is not empty. Why are these files so large ? Size of total source files I use is only 3MB. Thank you. -

Thank you.NCB is the Intellisense Database. This sometimes messes up BADLY. I have had a NCB-File with a size of 1.2 GB (!!!). Sometimes the Parser will get a hick-up and go crazy. Just delete the file, it's automatically recreated when you reload your project. Looking stuff up (code completion etc.) might be a bit slow, but will soon get back to its old self. The PCH-File is the precompiled header file. You can delete that one as well, it also will be recreated. If it is not there, compiling might take a bit longer (because it has to be recreated). If you do not need recompiled headers, turn them off in the project properties. Cheers, Sebastian -- Contra vim mortem non est medicamen in hortem.
