Project Tool > Advanced > Call Other Tool issues
« on: September 20, 2024, 05:26:10 PM »
1) After clicking on "Call Other Tool", I'm prompted to select a tool.  Good.  Next I'm prompted to "Select A Tool, but it should say "Select a Configuration".

2) I set up a custom tool to build, run, and display unit test run results for the current test case (current file).  None of the "Call Other Tool" targets get the document name.  It looks like something is missing from the code to call other tools within vsbuild.

I'm not sure I'm following #2 or maybe I just need a sample project. Please post a small sample project and provide steps to reproduce this.

The simple project I created worked fine.

vsbuild gets an argument which specifies the buffer name. In my sample "A" calls target "B" and "B" does echo %f just fine.

vsbuild a -b /f/se64/b28-00-02-fix/slickedit/macros/compile.e -c Release  /f/se64/projects/other1/other1.vpw /f/se64/projects/other1/other1.vpj
