How to specify MSbuild output folder?

Question

Hi,

When I execute delphi 2009 project using MSBuild command line, output always goes to C: drive

C:\MyProjects>MSbuild "C:\MyTestProject\Test.dproj" /t:Build /p:OutDir="C:\Output\bin\"

Why is this happening?

Thanks & Regards, Pavan.

Answer 1

I know the docs say otherwise, but try OutputPath instead of OutDir.

Answer 2

For Delphi projects you need to use DCC_ExeOutput to specify where the EXE should go.

C:\MyProjects>MSbuild "C:\MyTestProject\Test.dproj" /t:Build /p:DCC_ExeOutput="C:\Output\bin\"

Take a look inside Test.dproj for any other options you might want to specify.
