[CMake] cmake is reruning on rebuild

[David Cole]

Just use Build Solution. Rebuild Solution causes *all* build steps
everywhere to re-run, even when nothing has changed, including the ones that
re-run cmake if a CMakeLists.txt file changes.

If you want to start over entirely (effective "Rebuild Solution") then wipe
your binary tree entirely, re-run CMake to generate a new solution file and
open that solution and do "Build Solution".....


(It takes a while to get used to this technique when you first switch from
pure Visual Studio based builds (without CMake) ... but eventually, you get
used to it.)


HTH,
David
