Is there a by which the recompilation of a set of dlls in particular order can be automated. For e.g. I have 3 dlls. 2nd dll has a reference to the 1st dll and the 3rd dll has the reference of both 1st and 2nd. Any change in dll 1 which needs recompilation of dll 1(may be due to code change or interface change) may or may not require recompilation of dll 2 and the same is true for dll 3. In a worst scenario I might need to recompile all the dlls, which is a very painful job. If any one has done this automation process then please let me know.

Automating dll recompilation

You can use one of the GNU "make" or "nmake" tools to automate this.
You create a script file that says, when this file changes, recompile. And a further dependency that says, when this DLL changes, recompile this other DLL(s).
