Enable a specific define and set output path when compiling C++Builder 2010 project with msbuild

174 Views Asked by At

How do you, using msbuild from cmd build a C++ Builder 2010 project and specify that you want the created exe to end up in "../FooBar" and that the define "FOO" should be set while compiling? I don't want it to delete any of the other defines already defined in the .cbproj file.

I have tried all kinds of Properties in my msbuild script but nothing seems to work. Is C++ Builder 2010 using a version of msbuild that is to old to support this?

To clarify, this is all done in a msbuild script that uses the <msbuild /> task tag

I solved my issues by instead creating a new build configuration and running that config from the build script.
