### Remarks

Returns [AssemblyBuilderStatus.NotStarted](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityeditor/compilation/assemblybuilderstatus/notstarted.md) before [AssemblyBuilder.Build](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityeditor/compilation/assemblybuilder/build.md) has been called.

Returns [AssemblyBuilderStatus.IsCompiling](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityeditor/compilation/assemblybuilderstatus/iscompiling.md) during build and  [AssemblyBuilderStatus.Finished](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityeditor/compilation/assemblybuilderstatus/finished.md) once the build finishes.

Accessing this property in a loop on the main thread until it returns [AssemblyBuilderStatus.Finished](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityeditor/compilation/assemblybuilderstatus/finished.md) is allowed. This will block the main thread until the build finishes.
