What does this option do? It is accessible from the Build menu.
To build, rebuild, or clean an entire solution Choose Build All to compile the files and components within the project that have changed since the most recent build. Choose Rebuild All to "clean" the solution and then builds all project files and components. Choose Clean All to delete any intermediate and output files.
Choose Clean Solution to delete any intermediate and output files. With only the project and component files left, new instances of the intermediate and output files can then be built.
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).
It deletes all the compiled and temporary files associated with a solution. It ensures that the next build is a full one, rather than only changed files being recompiled.
