Hi,

I was just wondering if devenv comes with the .NET framework. Or does it come with the Visual Studio IDE?

I am trying to write an automated build process for the deployment of my company's software. I want to use devenv in the makefile. It would make sense to include it in the framework, but then again, typing just devenv launches VS IDE. Thus my confusion

Of course, when the software is deployed on the client computer, they will not have VS installed... only the .NET framework

Thank

Petey

The latter.

Type devenv /? and you'll get a list of command line options to use.

In that case I suggest you use NAnt instead - http://nant.sf.net
