Hi,

Do you have experience in building API programs using command line on DOS window.
Please advice what is the best way to do this.

Thanks in advance.

It's the same as any other development - you can create a makefile to build the add-on.

Ralph,

Thanks for your reply.
I found the VCBuild.exe in the Microsoft Visual Studio folder. It does the job but bit tricky to get it working.

I don't know which version of VS you're using, but perhaps these articles will be relevant: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/f35ctcxw.aspx
