How do I know exactly what commands are being executed when I press the play button in the VStudio 2010 IDE?
I am relatively new to Visual Studio and I would like to know what exactly happens when I press the IDE play button to create a project. Is there a way to find out what commands are running in the background?
When I open the Output window, I just see the following.
------ Build started: Project: ZXing.Net.Mobile.MonoForAndroid, Configuration: Debug Any CPU ------
ZXing.Net.Mobile.MonoForAndroid -> C:\Users\avi\Desktop\APC-mono\ZXing.Net.Mobile\bin\Debug\ZXing.Mobile.dll

- In the Options dialog box (from
Tools | Options...
) - in the tree on the left select
Projects and Solutions | Build and Run
- right, under
MSBuild project build output verbosity
, select (say)Normal
Now when you build, the build output will have more detailed information. Note that it Detailed
is probably in more detail than you need, and Diagnostic
almost certainly in more detail than you need.
