Quit VBP entirely during a build?

[dhollman]

Is there any way to get VBP to entirely quit in a build step / action?

I tried EXIT but that only terminates the build itself.

FYI I posted this on Stack Overflow also but no answers yet...

Thanks!

Include the /s flag when starting VisBuildPro.exe (if using a VisBuildPro Project action, check 'Run GUI App in silent mode' on the Project tab) so that it will exit after the build finishes.

To make this the default when opening projects from Windows Explorer, add /s to the shell command in the registry at

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VisualBuildPro9.Project\shell\op en\command
You may also want to check Tools | User Options | Build | Honor command-line switches if build fails/canceled and continued.
