Why vsSolutionBuildEvent

Advanced handler of the most events from MS Visual Studio & MSBuild tools. Full control and flexible multi-actions for basic pre/post events and other additional such as:

  • CommandEvent, Errors, Warnings, Cancel-Build, Output-Build, Transmitter, Logging

Ability to handle events for all subprojects at once from the whole solution as an Solution-Events or individually for each separately.

Various modes for everything:

Supports Advanced MSBuild & SBE-Scripts engine for your awesome ideas.

Provides CI support (TeamCity, AppVeyor, Azure DevOps, ...), Command-Line mode and lot of other features for convenient work with the builds, tests, versioning, IO operations, and so on. See the documentation.

Advanced MSBuild

Through E-MSBuild engine.

#[var v = $([System.String]::Format("v{0}\r\n\t", $(v)))]

#[try

    $(msg) - Error Message
}]

#[Box iterate(i = 0; $(loop); i += 1): #[try
{
    ...
}
catch { $(loop = false) }] ]

For example, you can exclude projects from build at runtime:

#[Build projects.find("name").IsBuildable = false]

Capture data from external utilities:

#[var bSha1 = #[IO sout("git", "rev-parse --short HEAD")]]

Do callable actions with arguments:

#[$(shaListDir = $(dbin))] #[$(searchSubDirs = '0')]
#[Core events.Post.item("ShaList").run()]

Work with files and archives:

#[IO copy.file("$(odir)/notes.txt", "$(pDirCIM)bin\\$(cfg)\\", true)]
#[7z pack.files({
            "$(pDirBridge)bin\$(cfg)\Bridge.*.*",
            "CI.MSBuild.dll",
            "CI.MSBuild.pdb",
            "$(pDirCIM)bin\$(cfg)\*.txt"}, "$(odir)CI.MSBuild_v$(numCIM)_[$(branchSha1)][$(netStamp)].zip")]

+DTE-commands, +Access to all MSBuild properties on the fly, +Conditional statements and lot of other components:

#[try
{
    #[Box iterate(i = 0; $(i) < 10; i += 1): 
        ...
    ]
}catch{ }]

#[( #[vsSBE events.Pre.item(1).Enabled] || ($(Configuration) == "Release" && $(sysc)) )
{
    #[Build projects.find("name").IsBuildable = false]
}
else
{
    #[var bSha1 = #[IO sout("git", "rev-parse --short HEAD")]]
    ...
}]

... create new in 5 minutes

Processing modes

https://3F.github.io/web.vsSBE/doc/Modes/

From simple commands to C# or even msbuild targets:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Project ToolsVersion="4.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">

    <Target Name="Init">
        <!-- ... -->
    </Target>

    <!--
        Additional properties:
            $(ActionName)
            $(BuildType)
            $(EventType)
            $(SupportMSBuild)
            $(SupportSBEScripts)
            $(SolutionActiveCfg)
            $(StartupProject)
    -->
</Project>

CommandEvent (DTE)

You can also use this to catch all command from VS IDE. Samples:

$(lcGuid = #[DTE events.LastCommand.Guid])
$(lcId   = #[DTE events.LastCommand.Id])

#[($(lcGuid) == "{1496A755-94DE-11D0-8C3F-00C04FC2AAE2}" && $(lcId) == 1627) {
    #[File scall("notepad", "#[var log]", 30)]
}]

Automatic Version Numbering

See our Wizard for automatic code generation or use any custom scripts.

Various environments

You can easily use this with TeamCity, Azure DevOps, AppVeyor, and any other automated environments:

...

Solution-wide Build events

Pre-Build / Post-Build events for all projects at once or individually for each separately: configure what you need.

Stop build on first error

Immediately stop (at the same time) after the first appearance (compared with StopOnFirstBuildError plugin [?])
