Having multiple applications build from a single code base where the only difference is the branding

Building Apps from Powershell for different clients

Q: Do we need devenv or will msbuild do?
A; Let’s hope for msbuild - faster, easier to use in a CI environment. It’s not like we have big DB or anything.

rd .\BuildResults /S /Q
md .\BuildResults

REM set msBuildDir=%WINDIR%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5
set msBuildDir=%WINDIR%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319
call %msBuildDir%\msbuild.exe  MySolution.sln /p:Configuration=Release /l:FileLogger,Microsoft.Build.Engine;logfile=Manual_MSBuild_ReleaseVersion_LOG.log
set msBuildDir=

XCOPY .\MyProject\Bin\Release\*.* .\BuildResults\
