Integration into Visual Studio

Visual Studio version 2008 onwards comes with a new XML-based build system called MSBuild. The MSBuild system is also activated when triggering a build from the Visual Studio GUI. The project files created by the Visual Studio GUI are used as input by the MSBuild tool.

To use MSBuild to generate goto-binaries from your Visual Studio project:

  1. Install the goto-cl.exe and goto-link.exe binaries in some directory that is contained in the PATH environment variable.

  2. Add a configuration for the goto-cc build for your project in the configuration manager, named "goto-cc".

  3. Open the Visual Studio Command Prompt (in the Tools menu).

  4. Locate the directory that contains the project. Change into this directory.

  5. Type

    msbuild /p:CLToolExe=goto-cl.exe /p:LinkToolExe=goto-link.exe    /p:Flavor=goto-cc /p:Platform=x86

    You can adjust the platform as required. The "Flavor" given should match the configuration you created earlier.

Note that the recent versions of goto-cc also support file names with non-ASCII (Unicode) characters on Windows platforms.
