build-automation

I'm trying to generate a C# project within an existing C++ CMake code base on Windows. After some research, I could find only two projects that built their own CSharp compilers for CMake: gdcm and kde . I tried both of them. Unfortunately, the first one failed to generate a C# project. Instead it created a VS C++ project with cs files in it, and because of C++ flags set for linker, the build always failed with errors. After experimenting with the sample project they provided, I wonder whether this could be due to a limitation of the "Visual Studio 8 2005" code generator? The second project was

Delphi 2009 uses build configurations . When you create a new project you have two default build configurations "Debug" and "Release". Now I asked myself how to automate builds using MSBuild (which is supported by Delphi since version 2007). You can start the "msbuild" command in the "RAD Studio Command Prompt" in some Delphi project directory and it will build the default build configuration (the last activated build configuration inside the Delphi IDE). Now, I want to specify a certain (non-default) build configuration by a command line parameter. The Delphi help asserts that the parameter

I want to run a local/internal NuGet repository . I think I've figured out how to "reuse" existing NuGet packages by including them in a dummy project using NuGet and scanning the package file to grab my locally-cached .nupkg files , but... How do you create a nuget package ( .nupkg ) from a project, automatically including all dll dependencies and not just those grabbed via NuGet? Specifically: Create a solution Add a new Project Add references to various .dll files/other projects <-- this is the missing part Add NuGet packages via package manager / cmdline / whatever something automatically

Anyone recommend how a person could get started with autotools in building a C project? Follow the autotools tutorial . You can also get the autobook . Chapter 4 covers a minimal GNU autotools project. Alexandre Duret-Lutz 's tutorial is my resource of choice. There are also: Autotools: a practitioner's guide to Autoconf, Automake and Libtool Autotools Mythbuster To me, the autobook is not up to date anymore and more difficult to read. However it still contains interesting chapters like Writing Portable Bourne Shell . Also, consider learning about non-recursive automake which addresses the
