Hello Raj,

A lot of the functionality in my Makefile depends on having a Linux-like shell so I'm not sure how practical it is for you. However, the new Makefiles in SDK 12 do exactly what you are looking for: they only build a release version and they do it using Make's built-in dependency checking mechanism. I would recommend checking them out for Windows development without Cygwin.

Hi Daniel, I'm using windows 8.1 64 bit OS. I made a small change in command used to create dependency file now it working my changes are attached below and I'm creating build only for _release

one more thing is if I clean the project first time after building it takes 500ms to clean if I again clean the project without building it takes about 4s. I observed that when clean second time without building first it creates dependency files for all source files and it deleting _dep folder. can you help me to solve it.

Hello Raj, what OS/shell are you using? Do the regular SDK Makefiles work for you?
