Hi Brian:
Clean erases all the intermediate build information about your
project, so that the next time you build the project it will rebuild
everything from scratch. This is useful for those times when the build
system does not copy in new resource or rebuild files that need to be
rebuilt for some reason. Some times, mysterious bugs that appear
suddenly and seem to have no other diagnosis are fixed by cleaning first.
I've also found it a good idea to do right before I build a release
version and before I release source code.
BTW, the term comes from PB's roots in standard UNIX tools.
Commonly, when writing a Makefile you would include a rule called
"clean" that would erase all the object files you left scattered about
while building.
Cheers,
-C

Funny you should mention "CLEAN" as I have been spending this morning
trying to figure out what it does. I can find nothing in the docs, but
maybe I'm not looking in the right place. Can anyone enlighten me as
to this function in Project Builder? Thanks in advance!
