Dear JS-Support,

Is it possible to build HTML/JS code WITHOUT running Simulator ?

Background: because of the we use lot of native javascripts + external components the Simulator is useless at the present stage.
(what works perfectly in browser not working in Simulator: we test and debug it under Chrome debugger).

So, we would like to speed up the build process without Simulator.

Is is possible ?

Thanks for your kind reply in advance,
Br,
Péter

Dear Péter,

The ability to compile to JS/HTML directly during the build process rather than from the Simulator will be available in a few weeks. (Note: The overall compilation time will not be much shorter though).

Thanks.

JS-Support

Dear JS-Support,

Thanks for your kind reply, waiting for that feature.

One other thing what should be great help:
in case of build without simulator: not to lock / I mean release the Visual Studio source files as soon as possible.

Péter

Excellent news, will this be useable from the command line?

I really can't wait as I want to include the process in a script (VS studio can be installed but I want to run it against a solution directory without starting VS directly as several of my customers don't like VS and only really need a simple Xaml editor)

Did I say this is turning into a great product :-)

Thanks a lot Michael.

Yes, this will be available from the command line as well (by calling "msbuild.exe PROJECTNAME.csproj").
