Unable to locate VS.NET command-line compiler

[Japster24]

For the "Make VS 2010" action, I'm getting the error: "Unable to locate VS.NET command-line compiler" using VS2010 and trying to use VCBuild. Is there something I'm missing here?

I tried using MSBuild command but the *.log file is not created. I can't figure out what is going on and the MSBuilds forum is about as useless as a bowl of bar nuts (but my questions are here: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/msbuild/threads).

I'm not sure if this is a VS2010 thing, a VBPro thing, or a me thing. This worked fine with VS2008 using VCBuild and Make VS 2008 with the logging being output.

Any ideas? Thanks!

I don't think VCBuild comes with VS 2010, so you may need to specify msbuild or devenv, but you can override the compiler executable (specifying the full path to devenv.com, msbuild.exe, or vcbuild.exe) on the Options tab if needed.

Yeah it seems you are correct that VS2010 doesn't come with VCBuild.exe. I'll try this another way. Thanks!

Were you able to get this VS.NET command line compiler to work?

since vcbuild is no longer in VS2010 I had to rewrite my scripts to use MSBuild (a search and replace in the XML seemed to work on all my scripts).

if you have any luck otherwise please post back here

one other thing that got me was that there is no more output.html but that's in another thread of mine if you wish to search for it.
