How to Compile a C# Project from Source

问题:

So I mean compile without visual studio

回答1:

From here:

Compiles File.cs producing File.exe:

csc File.cs

Compiles File.cs producing File.dll:

csc /target:library File.cs

Compiles File.cs and creates My.exe:

csc /out:My.exe File.cs

Compiles all the C# files in the current directory, with optimizations on and defines the DEBUG symbol. The output is File2.exe:

csc /define:DEBUG /optimize /out:File2.exe *.cs

回答2:

Go to the project directory (I assume .NET framework is in your PATH):

msbuild <enter>

If you want to compile a bunch of C# source files (not in a project), you'd use the csc command. vbc is VB.NET compiler. jsc is JScript.NET compiler. cl is C++/CLI (& plain C++) compiler.

If you already have a solution or project file, use msbuild tool. You can find it deeply inside folder "%windir%\Microsoft.NET\". For example, on my machine I run the following to compile my project:

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\MSBuild.exe MassiveMultithreading.sln

回答4:

I created a batch file that i use for this, so I can compile multiple projects in a row. This should help you get in the right direction:

cls
echo off
c:


cd windows
cd microsoft.net
cd framework
cd v3.5

msbuild c:\Project\Project.sln /t:rebuild /p:Configuration=Debug /p:Platform="any cpu" /clp:Nosummary

There are currently three ways to compile a C# project. The first is with Visual Studio, but you've stated that VS not installed is a constraint. The second is using the raw .NET SDK tools. The third way is to use Mono.

Using msbuild requires Visual Studio to be installed. Using csc does NOT, however it does require the .NET SDK to be installed.

Using .NET:

• Compiles File.cs producing File.exe:

  csc File.cs

• Compiles File.cs producing File.dll:

  csc /target:library File.cs

• Compiles File.cs and creates My.exe:

  csc /out:My.exe File.cs

• Compiles all of the C# files in the current directory, with optimizations on and defines the DEBUG symbol. The output is File2.exe:

  csc /define:DEBUG /optimize /out:File2.exe *.cs

Using Mono:

• Compiles File.cs producing File.exe compat with .NET 1.1:

  mcs File.cs

or for .NET 2.0 compatible

gmcs File.cs

• Compiles File.cs producing File.dll:

  msc /target:library File.cs

• Compiles File.cs and creates My.exe:

  msc /out:My.exe File.cs

• Compiles all of the C# files in the current directory, with optimizations on and defines the DEBUG symbol. The output is File2.exe:

  msc /define:DEBUG /optimize /out:File2.exe *.cs

回答6:

use command line with csc.exe or msbuild

回答7:

Set your path or change directory to C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727 ( note, if directory if using different framework version ).

type:

MSBuild /path/to/your/project/projectname.solution /rebuild

Or, using csc from the commandline. Again, switch to the directory mentioned above, this time the command is

csc /out:filename.exe /path/to/your/project/*.cs

Note, CSC.exe has a few hundred operations. Type csc -help for more details.
