Huh??

I could be wrong, but I don't think dotnet supports automation.

I think it does support command line arguments, so you could perhaps get the same effect by creating bat files and shelling to them.

Hi Brian,


My requirment is, I wanna open a C# project, edit and compile c# files dynamically from C# my win app. Though, CodeDOM helps us to compile the code dynamically, i want to use automation to provide editor, to write, save and compile the code.

I think, Automation is only way right ? Framework provides such classes like DTE.Solution, Project, ProjectItem, how to use it for do the above task ?

Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Sounds like you're trying to make your own code editor in C#.

The compiler comes with the .Net framework SDK. Here's a link I found: http://www.dotnet101.com/articles/ar...ompOptions.asp

Hi Shawn,


Compilations not a problem to me, Am using my CodeDOM for my compilations.

But, we need to get some code for open a source code of a method or class in VS.NET editor using automation.

Any samples ?
