Can Build Forge be used with .NET Solutions?

Just wondering if Build Forge can compile a .net solution?

yes. once you set up the project in vs/.net to build from the command-line, you can use BF to execute that build.

Hi Tim,

Build Forge is fairly open ended with what it can build because essentially when a Build Forge step runs, the execution on the agent computer is running a command line script.

Therefore, if you can manually type the commands to run some type of command line tool from a Windows command line shell to compile a .net solution, then those commands can be added to a Build Forge step. One thing to pay special attention to is if in your manual build process today for the .net solution if any environment variables have been set for the command line shell. If so, it would be good to make sure that a Build Forge environment group has those variables or that those values are always present when running the Build Forge step.
