How does one build a .csproj from command line having a log written to a specified location?

Question

While the \'no-log\' build seems to work smoothly with something like

\"c:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\\Common7\\ide\\VCSExpress\" Project

Answer 1

You have to specify the configuration after the /build option. Also, the log file must already exist, it doesn't create one from scratch. Thus:

copy con > log.txt
^Z      // Type Ctrl+Z
"c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\ide\VCSExpress" Project1.csproj /build debug /log log.txt
