Command Line

[NewsArchive]

Can a project be processed from the command line. It would be cool to
project run from a batch file, auto build and upload to the web site.

Don,

Yes, this is a SB5 Developer Edition feature.

SBUILDER.EXE /C "C:\Development\Sample.sb5"

where:

SBUILDER.EXE is the path to the SetupBuilder 5 executable

"C:\Development\Sample.sb5" is the path to the project file you want to
compile

And you can even use the #run preprocessor ("Process after script
compilation") to launch an external tool to upload it to your web
site.

"point. click. ship" - that's SetupBuilder 5

Thanks Friedrich

I am still missing something. My command line is

sbuilder.exe /c "C:\Premier2005\premierbackup.sb5"

The above just loads Setupbuilder but does not open/compile the
premierbackup.sb5 project. Is there some setting within the project that
also needs to be set.

Check case. Some command line options are case sensitive.

Don,

Do you have build #1201? All our internal test scripts (~300) are compiled
via command line on a daily basis and it works fine.

And what Russ said. Please use /C instead of /c

Thanks,
Friedrich
