Is there anyway to skip some file in compilation time?
say my project having 300 cpp files, 100 view,100 controller,100
model, I need to compile only view in this time..
how I can set macro for this? or any other way?
any help really appreciable.

There isn't any way to skip files that need to be rebuilt in order to be
current. Using a precompiled header containing stable (unchanging) header
files drastically speeds compilation time; in a typical program, the files
names of the .cpp files being compiled scroll rapidly in the output window
as they are being compiled. It literally takes less than a second each to
compile.

If you are saying that some of these files do not need to be linked into the
final .exe or .dll, you can create a new project configuration and exclude
the unneeded files in that configuration. This is done using the Project
Properties | Configuration Properties | General | Excluded From Build of the
C++ files you want to exclude.
