Re: Automated Builds In VB6

Try this link [1] for more information on how to build VB6 projects using NMake.
I'd still like to be able to generate the makefile(s) from a VB Add-In  for my open project (or solution).

Hello Stefan, (& others)
 
I was not aware that Nmake could be used to build VB projects.
 
What do  you need for information in the Makefile?

Thanks Yves, 
 
I found a good article [1] on the batchfile approach, however I'm using NMake.EXE to build the project. 
I'd like to figure some way to generate the makefile from the VB6 project file.
 
Best

Hello,
 
I have done this from batch files
It is quite easy, it is documented in msdn
It really helps for big projects
 
I unregistered dll's
download the source from sources safe
compiled
registered (done automaticly)
upload dll in sourcesafe
and send a mail
 
logged all this in a .log
 
Just simple batch files
I know there are some tools for it (don't know the names) but haven't found any good)

I understand that projects can be built from the command line using VB6.EXE
Does anyone know if there is an existing tool to automatically generate makefiles for a project, similar to SlingShot [1] in .NET?

Best wishes
