View Full Version : Make VS.NET Step fails to select configurations correctly

Using Visual Build Pro 5.4 with Visual Studio 2003

The Make VS.NET Action appears to fail to handle configurations pretty regularly.

The docs suggest using wildcards, for instance "Release*" should catch configs that are marked "Release" as well as "Release | Win32". This does not appear to happen reliably.

It also appears to just plain miss some of the configurations in the solution, which leads me to try using the "All" option.

Unfortunately, neither does using the "All" radio button.
I get errors like this:


8/20/2004 8:00:59 AM: Building project step 'Build CADL'...
Invalid configuration name ''
8/20/2004 8:00:59 AM: Step 'Build CADL' failed
8/20/2004 8:00:59 AM: Build ended.


Any ideas?

To match all solution configuration names beginning with "Release", use a regular expression of Release.* (the matching uses regex, not filename-style wildcards). Please post (or send to support@kinook.com) your .sln file + constituent project file(s) and we can examine why the All option is not working. Thanks.
