Comments:
When this directive is specified, the build only recompiles programs that have changed and programs that refer to types or programs within those programs that have changed. When using this directive, the build creates a directory within the project output directory called JVMDependencies that stores dependency information for all the programs in your project.
Micro Focus recommends that you clean your project and build before packaging for distribution.
