It all depends on the exit code of devenv, if it exits with an error code of 0, Jenkins will see it as a SUCCESS, otherwise it is a failure. You probably need to call vcvarsall.bat first to set up all the common paths and so forth, something like this:
call "c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" x86 devenv Product.sln /rebuild "Release|x86" On Thu, Jun 7, 2012 at 8:53 AM, louwho <louels...@comcast.net> wrote: > OK, I have a working VS 2008 MSBuild VB.net job.
