SolnConfigName
Optional. The name of the solution configuration (such as
DebugorRelease) to be used to rebuild the solution named in SolutionName. If more than one solution platform is available, you must also specify the platform (for example,Debug|Win32). If this argument is unspecified or an empty string (""), the tool uses the solution's active configuration./ProjectProjNameOptional. The path and name of a project file within the solution. You can enter the project's display name or a relative path from the SolutionName folder to the project file. You can also enter the full path and name of the project file.
/ProjectConfigProjConfigNameOptional. The project's build configuration name (such as
DebugorRelease) to be used when rebuilding the/Projectnamed. If more than one solution platform is available, you must also specify the platform (for example,Debug|Win32). If this switch is specified, it overrides the SolnConfigName argument./OutOutputFilenameOptional. The name of a file that you want to send the tool's output to. If the file already exists, the tool appends the output to the end of the file.
