Change ncb file location in Visual C ++ 2008 (9.0)
I changed my VC ++ settings so that all of my actual code would move to one location, while the compiler generated executables would move to another. However, this ncb file is an exception. This is a fairly large binary generated by the IDE (Intellisense Database). I can't seem to move it anywhere other than the solution folder. I searched google and found several links saying this is not possible. Anyone have a workaround?

Visual Studio doesn't let you move this file. This article on CodeProject shows how one person worked around this problem by creating a version of symbolic links . It has to do with Windows' connection CreateFile
. This approach seems overkill to me; I think I'll just learn to live with this limitation, if possible.
