The Build menu in the Building Window provides the following commands:

New Target Opens the Define New Target dialog box, in which you can specify a target, a makefile, or make command or modify the parameters of a build (see Define New or Edit Target Dialog Boxes).
Edit Target Connects to a submenu consisting of previously specified makefile targets. If Entire Project is on the submenu and you select it, you are asking to build all the targets in the project. If Clean is on the submenu and you select it, you are asking to delete all generated files, the source browsing database, the C++ templates database, the executable itself, and other build-related files. Selecting an item from the submenu opens the Edit Target dialog box, in which you can modify the parameters of a build (see Define New or Edit Target Dialog Boxes).
Build Begins a build of the current Sun WorkShop target (see Starting a Build).
Stop Build Stops the current build process (see Stopping a Build). This menu item becomes active during a build.
Save Output As Opens the Save Build Output dialog box, in which you can save the build output to a file.
Show WorkShop Main Window Opens the Main Window.
Sun WorkShop target list Displays a list of previously specified makefile targets. Selecting a target starts a build for that target. The first list item is the current target. When you create a project, the project adds Entire Project and Clean to the target list. When you select Entire Project, you are asking to build all the targets in the project; when you select Clean, you are asking to delete all generated files (for example, the .o files), the source browsing database, the C++ templates database, the executable itself, and other build-related files.
