I am trying to follow the steps of Github as following. But I don't know how to conduct the 2.and 3.step
To build the solution using the Visual Studio:
1.Open the UXI.GazeToolkit.sln in Visual Studio.
2.Set up build target to Release.
3.Build the solution (default hotkey F6).
On the toolbar, choose Release from the Solution Configurations list
then press the green start button
I have a very large ASP.NET webforms application project, whose file takes time if I run it in Visual Studio in debug mode. Is there any way if a solution is already built to just click the run button and start debug mode without again building the solution in Visual Studio (any version)?
I am working with Visual Studio Community 2019 in Windows 10. I have a solution which has multiple projects of different types.
I open that solution in Visual Studio Community 2019. Then click on "Build > Rebuild Solution" menu option to rebuild it. In the Output tab I can see output from Build. That output shows me the result of rebuild but it does not show me what command(s) were issued to start the rebuild. How can I see those command(s) issued by Visual Studio?
I want to know what happens so I can write a script (window .bat or powershell) to do it outside of VStudio if needed.
Thanks
Visual Studio builds use MSBuild. You could increase the build verbosity to get a massive dump of text, but I recommend using the Project System Tools plugin to record binary build logs for export to MSBuild Log Viewer.
I am trying to publish my solution to Microsoft Azure in Visual Studio 2017. In the configuration manager, the Deploy check box is grayed out and I can not put a check mark in it.
I understand a similar question was asked about the configuration manager being disabled in Visual Studio 2010
However, the solution to that post does not work in Visual Studio 2017. I have tried going to Tools> Options>General and the check box for Show advanced build configurations is already checked.
Please help.
Thanks
Not sure if it helps, but in my case, with Win32 app/DLL projects, Deploy is enabled against the project, which is configured for remote debugging with deployment:
in the Configuration/Debugging property page of the project, for "Debugger to launch" Remote Windows Debugger option selected
Deployment Directory option is configured
I am trying to publish my solution to Microsoft Azure in Visual Studio 2017. In the configuration manager, the Deploy check box is grayed out and I can not put a check mark in it.
As far as I know, it would be related to the real project type created in your VS.
Deploy: If enabled, specifies whether or not the project will be deployed when the Run or Deploy commands are used with the selected solution build configuration.
This check box only appears for deployable projects. For example, the database project is ok, the .NET MVC project is not. For more details about configuration manager, you could refer to this link.
I also have created a simple demo includes .NET MVC project and database project. You could see the database project could be deployed from the screenshot.
How do I switch between debug and release in Visual C# 2010 Express?
I have looked in the project properties, but it seems to be missing. What am I missing?
Enable the Tools → Settings → Expert Settings menu option
Go to Tools → Options
In the dialog box, check Show All Settings option in the bottom left.
In the above dialog, now choose Projects and Solutions → General.
Check the option Show advanced build configurations.
Click OK.
You should be able to see the Release/Debug options in the toolbar now.
Heh, that one baffled me too when I first installed Visual C# Express 2010. It turns out Microsoft has added a "Basic settings" mode to the Express editions that is selected by default.
You can change to "Expert settings" mode in the Tools menu, after that, the Debug/Release combo will be back.
Most IDE settings (window docking locations, font settings, etc.) seem to be kept in separate profiles between basic and expert mode, so you'll have to arrange your tool windows again and so on.
I'm sure there's some obscure way that I don't remember... what I do know is that if you click "Build" it will build the Release version, but if you click "Start Debugging" it will build the Debug version. So if you just want to be able to get the output from both versions, that should sort it for you.
You can follow these steps for visual studio 2010 professional edition.
Go to Tools -> Customize .
Select Commands Tab.
Select ToolBar and then Build from combobox.
Click on Add Command Button.
Select Build from Categories and then select Solution Configurations from Commands.
This is really strange. I've installed Windows 7 Pro x64, then I installed Visual C# 2010 Express and I couldn't find it at all. No matter how I built, it always produced Debug version. I could press F6 or press Build button and it still produced Debug version and I don't have any select box with Debug/Release to choose.
Finally I found it. I can change it by clicking my Soulution in Solution Explorer window and then in Properties window under Active Config.
The last answer by prostynick was the final clue.
I am using visual studio 2010 express.
First you need to have the advanced setting checked Tools ---> Settings
Next is solution explorer double left click or single right click "My Project" to open the project.
You get a large screen with application, compile, debug ... menu on the side
Select Compile
Look at "Build Output path:
It is probably pointing at bin\Debug folder.
Changing this will change where output from a build goes
