csc

Using the C# code provider and the ICodeCompiler.CompileAssemblyFromSource method, I am attempting to compile a code file in order to produce an executable assembly. The code that I would like to compile makes use of features such as optional parameters and extension methods that are only available when using the language C# 4. Having said that, the code that I would like to compile only requires (and needs ) to target version 2.0 of the .NET Framework. Using the proceeding code it is possible to avoid any compile-time errors pertaining to syntax however, the resulting assembly will target

In old .NET we used to be able to run the csc compiler to compile a single .cs file or several files. With .NET Core we have dotnet build that insists on having a proper project file. Is there a stand-alone command line compiler that would allow to compile source code files without having a project (and listing referenced dependencies on the same command line)? On Linux, when I have the old csc and the new .NET Core installed, I get these timings: [root@li1742-80 test]# time dotnet build Microsoft (R) Build Engine version 15.3.409.57025 for .NET Core Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation.

I am having am having or have run into a very strange thing. I wonder if others have and why it's happening. Having run a one line program with this line System.Console.WriteLine(System.Console.OutputEncoding.EncodingName); I see the Encoding is Western European (DOS) Fine Here is a list of some codepages 1200 Unicode and 65001 utf-8 and Windows-1252 Western European (Windows) and 850 Western European DOS from https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.text.encoding(v=vs.110).aspx Say I write a C sharp program to change the encoding to utf-8 class sdf { static void Main(string[] args) {

Could anyone help me compile via command line some c# files? I have 4 files to compile, Main, Form1 (which uses 2.cs file) and another class used in the project. I would like to compile this project in command line so I could add the /t:library switch (like in this tutorial: http://dotnetslackers.com/articles/csharp/WritingAnActiveXControlInCSharp.aspx ). However after using "csc /t:library Program1.cs MainForm.cs MainForm.Designer.cs EigenObjectRecognizer.cs" I get missing assembly reference errros such as these: \Project\FaceRecProOVaspVer\FaceRecProOV\MainForm.cs(14,15): error CS0234: The

Let's say I want to demo to someone about the differences between foreach in C# 4.0 and 5.0. So I write up my code snippet: public static void Main() { string[] fruits = { "Apple", "Banana", "Cantelope" }; var actions = new List<Action>(); foreach (var fruit in fruits) { actions.Add(() => Console.WriteLine(fruit)); } foreach(var a in actions) { a(); } } But no matter how I compile it, it always works as it does in 5.0 * . I've tried setting the language version in the csproj file (Build -> Advanced -> Language Version) and I've tried just building it on the command line: csc myProgram.cs

I want to do a build from the command line, but I'd like to get the exact command line syntax from Visual Studio (2012), so that I don't have to manually figure out all of the flags, imports, and other parameters. Is there a way to get Visual Studio to display this information? acfrancis When you build a project or solution in Visual Studio, the entire command line used to run the compiler (csc.exe, including switches and parameters) is displayed in the Output window. If you don't see it there, check the Verbosity level by going to: Options > Projects and Solutions > Build and Run > MSBuild
