A Question About Source Compiling..

Ok so i have followed this tutorial on how to Compile Source, i kinda understand it a little.

Tutorial -- > http://forum.ragezone.com/f724/video...source-806158/

My Question is that everytime i edit something or add something for example, editing my 3rd jobs,editing or adding pet filters do i need to compile it and replace every AccntServer,DatabaseServer,Coreserver etc..? or just simply compile it?

Sorry i'm new on this thing :') i studied the basics first before starting to learn about source compiling so please bear with me :P

If you edit a header file, you need to recompile. Else you just need to compile. Yes you need to replace them with those in the server folder as they aren't linked in any way, but existing files will be overwritten in the output folder.

Ooooohh, now i get it :') Thanks alot for answering my question :')

To be more specific, you only need to copy the .exe files that were actually changed from compiling. For example, if you compile it and say AccountServer.exe's last modified date isn't close to the time that you compiled everything, that means it didn't change and does not need to be copied.
