Automated Builds for Visual Basic 6
Booma-Booma:
Does anyone know of any good tools for Automating builds of Visual basic 6 projects? I have 16 activeX dlls that are a plugin to a CAD package so they have no exe and I don't control the CAD package. Quite frequently the CAD package breaks binary compatibility and therefore breaks my program. I then have to rebuild each program manually, breaking compatibility and making sure that all the references are pointing to the correct versions.
I would be looking for a command line utility that I could pass the name of the project and it would scan the project, change references if appropriate and break (and re-establish) binary compatibility when necessary.
Is there such a tool?
Thanks

maybe Visual Build Pro: http://www.kinook.com/VisBuildPro/thirdparty.html
or Final Builder: http://www.finalbuilder.com/finalbuilder.aspx

I downloaded Visual Build Pro. It works exactly the way I want a build tool to work! It even supports subversion and inno! mouser thanks for the tip.

As a developer, I understand both of these programs are more than worth their respective prices.
However... :P
My pocketbook isn't as understanding as I would like it to be these days. :down:
I was wondering if anybody knew of any FOSS alternatives for this type of GUI-driven tool?
I'd kill for an eclipse project to take on this type of tool. :up:

Sorry for raising this thread from the dead, but if anyone is still potentially in the market for one of these tools, Visual Build Pro is going to be on BitDuJour in about a week (May 12, 2009).
It's still going to be a fair bit of cash compared to most software discussed on DC - $120 - but that's a hefty discount off the normal $300 price.
