Optional. Determines whether Build(Boolean) retains control until the build operation is complete. Default value is false.

Implements

Build(Boolean)

Attributes: DispIdAttribute

Examples

This example sets the first solution configurations item to "release" and then builds the solution. Open a project in the Visual Studio integrated development environment (IDE) before running this example.

Imports EnvDTE  
Imports EnvDTE80  
Sub SolutionBuild2BuildExample(ByVal dte As DTE2)  
    ' Open a solution in Visual Studio before running this example.  
    Try  
        Dim soln As Solution2 = CType(_applicationObject.Solution, _  
        Solution2)  
        Dim sb As SolutionBuild2  
        Dim bld As BuildDependencies  
        sb = CType(soln.SolutionBuild, SolutionBuild2)  
        bld = sb.BuildDependencies  
        MsgBox("The project " & bld.Item(1).Project.Name & " has "  _  
        & bld.Count.ToString() & " build dependencies.")  
        MsgBox("Set the configuration to release and build...")  
        sb.SolutionConfigurations.Item("Release").Activate()  
        sb.Build()  
    Catch ex As System.Exception  
        MsgBox(ex.ToString)  
    End Try  
End Sub

using EnvDTE;  
using EnvDTE80;  
using System.Windows.Forms;  
public void SolutionBuild2BuildExample(DTE2 dte)  
{  
    try  
    {  
        Solution2 soln = (Solution2)_applicationObject.Solution;  
        SolutionBuild2 sb;  
        BuildDependencies bld;  
        // Open a solution in Visual Studio before   
        // running this example.  
        sb = (SolutionBuild2)soln.SolutionBuild;  
        bld = sb.BuildDependencies;  
        MessageBox.Show("The project " + bld.Item(1).Project.Name   
+ " has " + bld.Count.ToString() + " build dependencies.");  
        MessageBox.Show("Set the configuration to release   
and build...");  
        sb.SolutionConfigurations.Item("Release").Activate();  
        sb.Build(true);  
    }  
    catch (Exception ex)  
    {  
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);  
    }  
}

Remarks

If you set WaitForBuildToFinish to false — that is, control returns immediately after initiating a build — you can use the OnBuildDone event to determine when the build is complete.
