EXCLUDE_FROM_DEFAULT_BUILD

Exclude a target from the solution build configuration.

This property is only used by :ref:Visual Studio Generators. When set to TRUE, the target will be excluded from the build when the "Build Solution" command is run.

This property has a per-configuration version: :prop_tgt:EXCLUDE_FROM_DEFAULT_BUILD_<CONFIG>.

.. note:: Solution build configurations do not take project dependencies into account. If a target is excluded, it will not be built, even if another target included in the configuration depends on it. This behavior differs from the CMake-generated ALL_BUILD target and the :prop_tgt:EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL property.
