Visual Studio Project Builder Help

Build Visual Studio solution

 

/buildSolution

 

Specify the Visual Studio solution to build.

 

If the name contains spaces, it should be quoted.

 

Examples:

 

/buildSolution e:\om\c\testApps\testApps.sln

 

/buildSolution "e:\om\c\dev workspace\testApps.sln"

 

 

Related options

 

This option is best used with /loadSettings to load the settings you wish to use to build the solution, or with /resetSettings to use the default settings to build the solution.

 

Alternatively you can specify individual project file types to build in the solution:

 

/vcxproj

/vcproj

/dsp

/csproj

/fsproj

/vbproj

/vjsproj

 

 

Batch file usage

 

start /wait "Build TestApps" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Software Verify\Visual Studio Project Builder\visualStudioProjectBuilder.exe" /resetSettings /buildSolution "e:\om\c\testApps\testApps.sln"

 

This line in the batch file does this:

 

•starts Visual Studio Project Builder

•resets the settings to the default

•loads e:\om\c\testApps\testApps.sln

•builds all configurations of all projects in the solution (which projects and configurations are controlled by the settings - you can change this by using /loadSettings)

•closes Visual Studio Project Builder

•the batch file waits for Visual Studio Project Builder before executing the next statement in the batch file
