Visual Studio 2013 Solution building not in build order

Question

I am having problems getting my C# Solution to build "Fresh". If I clean the solution and build it again it will not build (I can do it a few times and it will build). It has an error about the azure project getting build before the worker and web projects that it is dependent on. Also about how most of the projects in the solution are looking for

WAT070 : The referenced assembly {...}/Worker.dll was not found.  Please make sure to build the role project that produces this assembly before building this Windows Azure Cloud Service Project. {...}\VisualStudio\v12.0\Windows Azure Tools\2.2\Microsoft.WindowsAzure.targets 1252    5   AzureProjectName 

Now if I build the projects in the order listed in the Project Dependencies -> Build Order everything works. Also, the web and work role are listed before Azure Project.

Solution is very simple.

You can set your project build order by right click on 'Project Solution' and select "Select Project Build Order" option.

For Example, I have a WpfFormApplicaiton1 and two class with title "ClassLibrary1" and "ClassLibrary2". By default Visual Studio sets it as follow:

My requirement is such as "ClassLibrary2" will be used by "ClassLibrary1" & "ClassLibrary1" will be used by "WpfFormApplication1". So, in order to fulfill this requirement I have to change the default project build order.

Go to Project Dependencies; Select the "ClassLibrary1" and set the "ClassLibrary2" as its dependency.

Similary, select the "WpfFormApplication1" and set the "ClassLibrary1" as its dependency.

Now, the desired project build order is set; confirmed by Project Build Order's options.
