I've just started using VS2010. I've got a largish solution that migrated successfully from VS2008. I've added a console application project called "Test" to the solution. Selecting build->build solution does not compile the new project. Selecting build->build Test does build the project. In the failure case, no error is given.
Similarly, setting this project as the startup project and pressing F5 to start debugging also fails to compile.
I'm upset by this. Can anyone calm me down by telling me what I'm doing wrong?
EDIT
I don't know if this is relevant or not, but today I installed AnhkSVN 2.1.8420 (latest version).

Build solution will build any projects in the solution that have changed. Rebuild builds all projects no matter what, clean solution removes all temporary files ensuring that the next build is complete.
Build and rebuild are two options available in Visual Studio. The main difference between build and rebuild in Visual Studio is that build helps to complete the code files which are changed while rebuild deletes all previously compiled files and compiles the solution from scratch ignoring anything done before.
To compile multiple C++ project items In Solution Explorer, choose multiple files that can be compiled, open the shortcut menu for one of those files, and then choose Compile, or press Ctrl+F7. If the files have dependencies, the files will be compiled in dependency order.
For a multi-project solution, "rebuild solution" does a "clean" followed by a "build" for each project (possibly in parallel). Whereas a "clean solution" followed by a "build solution" first cleans all projects (possibly in parallel) and then builds all projects (possibly in parallel).
Make sure the solution configuration is set to build your new project.
Go to Build | Configuration Manager and see if the build checkbox is set for your project
