Build a vcproj that is part of a solution with vcbuild?

Hi!

I'm trying to build a solution with vcbuild. It works without a Problem but what i want to be able to do is to build a part of the solution with vcbuild.
Something like vcproj1.vcproj|mysol.sln is that possible?

I know i am able to do that with devenv but with devenv i don't get the highlighting from vcbuild. If there was a way to do that there would also be no Problem.
Can i also tell devenv to build with /M4?

Thanks for the help.

Hello,

Thanks for your feedback.
In regard to your twoquestions:
1. As I know, none of them support this kind of input as parameter, they have no parser for this syntax.
2. MSBuild also has highlight feature for the error and warning(yellow for warning and red for error), you could take a try.

Regards,
Wesley

Hmm, i'm sorry, i think i posted this in the wrong section. Actually this is about a VC++ build i'm doing, and not a .NET project.

Will anyone please move this to an appropriate forum?

Thank you.

Hello,

Actually, this is the right place, but I'm a little puzzle about your question, do you mean some type of inputlike: vcbuild vcproj1.vcproj|mysol.sln under the command line?
If so, just typevcbuild vcproj1.vcproj cannot meet your requirement?

devent doesn't support the'/M' switch, MSBuild has '/maxcpucount', you could see here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms164311.aspx
MSBuild also work for VC project's building.

Sincerely,
Wesley

This does not meet my requirements since all the vcproj ara located in subfolders, and with the sln i was hoping to be able to save the effort of typing the subfolders. And your first suggestion is the correct one, that's the kind of input i'd like to be able to use. Similar to the target build syntax.

So there is no way also of getting warning/error highlight with msbuild or devenv?
Sorry that i didn't answer before, my mailer marked all the notices as junk...

No that do
Best regards.
