Launching command line compiler

[Michael Moreno]

Hello,

I am trying to automatically compile all my projects but I am stuck on
something silly: launching csc with the right arguments.

Here is my code

private void CompileProject(string RSPFile)
{
System.Text.StringBuilder sbArgs = new
System.Text.StringBuilder(100);
System.Diagnostics.Process procManager = new
System.Diagnostics.Process();

procManager.StartInfo.FileName = @"csc";

sbArgs.Append(@"@" + RSPFile);
procManager.StartInfo.Arguments = sbArgs.ToString();

procManager.Start();
}

Which I call using
CompileProject(@"C:\Dev\C#\Libraries\SD_StdClasses \SD_StdClasses.rsp");

If I compile myself using hard command line (cmd) it works fine.

Can you help please?

Thanks

sbArgs.Append(@"@" + RSPFile);
" " ( space ) is parameter separator.

Take a look at System.CodeDom.Compiler

Also, please, tell us what is the error returned?
Maybe you have to specify full path to csc?

Thanks the file name had no space.
I have tried adding double quote and all sorts of things but it still
fails.

I have given up and I am currently writing a .bat file that does the
job but it is very painful.

For some reasons most of the time the .rsp file does not compile but
copying and pasting its content into a cmd windows works. It is mad!

I have to type in the .bat file things such as

csc /r:"C:\Dev\Compiled\SWS\Dlls\dotNet\ADODB.dll"
/r:"C:\Dev\Compiled\SWS\Dlls\dotNet\Interop.SD_MSMQ _VB.dll"
/r:"C:\Dev\Compiled\SWS\Dlls\dotNet\Interop.SD_Serv erIntf.dll"
/r:"C:\Dev\Compiled\SWS\Dlls\dotNet\MSMQ.dll"
/r:"C:\dev\compiled\sws\dlls\dotnet\SDNet_Serializa bleObjects.dll"
/r:"C:\dev\compiled\sws\dlls\dotnet\SDNet_Serializa bleObjects.dll"
/r:"C:\Dev\Compiled\SWS\Dlls\dotNet\SDNet_StdClasse s.dll"
/r:"C:\Dev\Compiled\SWS\Dlls\dotNet\SDNet_SWSRemoti ngAsm.dll"
/r:"C:\Dev\Compiled\SWS\Dlls\dotNet\SWSConfig.dll " /t:exe
/out:"C:\Dev\Compiled\SWS\SWS Event Server.exe"
/recurse:"C:\Dev\C#\Server Apps\SWS Event Server\*.cs"
which is close to my worst nightmares.

I cannot work out how to use the /lib: tag either.
So running this command
csc /lib:"C:\Dev\Compiled\SWS\Dlls\DevExpress\"
/lib:"C:\Dev\Compiled\SWS\Dlls\Infragistics\"
/lib:"C:\Dev\Compiled\SWS\Dlls\dotNet" /r:"ADODB.dll"
/r:"DevExpress.Data3.dll" /r:"DevExpress.Utils3.dll"
/r:"DevExpress.ExtraEditor3.dll" /r:"DevExpress.xtragrid3.dll"
/r:"Infragistics.Excel.v3.2.dll" /r:"Infragistics.Shared.v3.2.dll"
/r:"Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.ExcelExport.v3.2. dll"
/r:"Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.v3.2.dll"
/r:"Infragistics.Win.v3.2.dll" /r:"Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll"
/r:"MSDATASRC.dll" /r:"SDNet_StdClasses.dll" /r:"StdFormat.dll"
/r:"stdole.dll" /r:"SWSConfig.dll" /t:exe /out:"C:\Dev\Compiled\SWS\SWS
Event Viewer.exe" /recurse:"C:\Dev\C#\Client Apps\SWS Event
Viewer\*.cs"

tells me that dlls cannot be found when it should... aaargh!!!

thanks

Why can't you use System.CodeDom.Compiler?

Additionally you can have a look at NAnt project.

Also if you have Visual Studio installed type devenv.exe /? you will see the
info how to compile and build vs projects without IDE.

Also if you still want to do that manually
you can refer to
