How can I get MSBuild to do a full build of a Delphi project equivalent to dcc32 -b?
I ve got two projects I m trying to build, the first one uses some conditional defines, which are getting passed via msbuild to the dcc32. However, some common units appear to be stuck with the first set of conditionals, so the second project is built improperly.
I believe it s /t:rebuild, the msbuild output lists "Deleting file: ..." for all the dcu s, then builds the project.
I use a batch file to call msbuild to build delphi projects, for Delphi 2007 and Delphi 2009 (which just has a different path for %BDS%):
set DCC_Quiet=true
set BDS=%ProgramFiles%CodeGearRAD Studio5.0
set MSBuildBinPath=%WinDir%Microsoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727
call %MSBuildBinPath%msbuild /nologo /t:rebuild /p:config=Release %1 %2 %3 %4 %5
[Note, from this question, for Release "Build Configuration", Delphi 2009 is /p:config=Release, and Delphi 2007 is /p:Configuration=Release]
I guess the question Delphi MSBuild Build Configuraions From Command Line contains the answer. Try
msbuild /target:Build
As I remember in D7 there was a similar problem when GUI vs dcc32 produced different builds. Take a look at location and content of your dcc32.cfg file(s). They actually can contain as many conditionals as you need. One conditional per-line
Another option is to delete the DCU s of the compiled units after your first build is complete and before you start your next one.
With my RAD Studio 2010 Professional, /t:rebuild is not defined. I figured
MSBuild.exe /t:Build /p:config=Release;DCC_BuildAllUnits=true
does the job
