How to build Openconsole

Openconsole can be built with Visual Studio or from the command line. There are build scripts for both cmd and powershell in /tools.

Building with cmd

The cmd scripts are set up to emulate a portion of the OS razzle build environment. razzle.cmd is the first script that should be run. bcz.cmd will build clean and bz.cmd should build incrementally.

There are also scripts for running the tests:

  • runut.cmd - run the unit tests
  • runft.cmd - run the feature tests
  • runuia.cmd - run the UIA tests

Build with Powershell

Openconsole.psm1 should be loaded with Import-Module. From there Set-MsbuildDevEnvironment will set up environment variables required to build. There are a few exported functions (look at their documentation for further details):

  • Invoke-OpenConsolebuild - builds the solution. Can be passed msbuild arguments.
  • Invoke-OpenConsoleTests - runs the various tests. Will run the unit tests by default.
  • Start-OpenConsole - starts Openconsole.exe from the output directory. x64 is run by default.
  • Debug-OpenConsole - starts Openconsole.exe and attaches it to the default debugger. x64 is run by default.

Configuration Types

Openconsole has three configuration types:

  • Debug
  • Release
  • AuditMode

AuditMode is an experimental mode that enables some additional static analyis from CppCoreCheck.
