Remarks

Implemented by the environment, IVsSolutionBuildManager orchestrates the building of projects within the solution. The solution build manager manages the set of dependencies between projects at the project level and will build those projects in the correct order based on those dependencies.

Solution build dependencies are set using the Solution Configuration property pages. The projects themselves supply the build system with information relating to their own items and the dependencies between those items.

Project build dependencies are set using the Project Configuration property pages. For more information relating to Property Pages and setting configurations, see Property Pages and Managing Configuration Options.

Other callers of this interface would be packages providing add-ins that want to control the build process and programmatically cause some build operations to occur at specific times. For example, the debug component of the environment calls QueryDebugLaunch to programmatically enable and disable the F5 key, and DebugLaunch to start the debug process that was set as the solution startup project.

Notes to Implementers

Implemented by the environment.

Methods

AdviseUpdateSolutionEvents(IVsUpdateSolutionEvents, UInt32)	Adds the caller to the list of listeners for IVsUpdateSolutionEvents events.
CanCancelUpdateSolutionConfiguration(Int32)	Enables or disables the Cancel menu item.
CancelUpdateSolutionConfiguration()	Cancels the update solution configuration.
DebugLaunch(UInt32)	Launches the startup project specified by the solution as the debug project.
FindActiveProjectCfg(IntPtr, IntPtr, IVsHierarchy, IVsProjectCfg[])	Determines the project configuration that is currently active.
get_CodePage(UInt32)	Obsolete method. Do not use.
get_IsDebug(Int32)	Obsolete method. Do not use.
get_StartupProject(IVsHierarchy)	Programmatic method to get the startup project that will be run when the F5 key is pressed.
GetProjectDependencies(IVsHierarchy, UInt32, IVsHierarchy[], UInt32[])	Returns a list of projects that the given hierarchy depends on.
put_CodePage(UInt32)	Obsolete method. Do not use.
put_IsDebug(Int32)	Obsolete method. Do not use.
QueryBuildManagerBusy(Int32)	Determines if the build manager is busy.
QueryDebugLaunch(UInt32, Int32)	Determines whether or not the F5 (debug start) key should be enabled.
set_StartupProject(IVsHierarchy)	Sets the startup project that will be run when the F5 key is pressed.
StartSimpleUpdateProjectConfiguration(IVsHierarchy, IVsHierarchy, String, UInt32, UInt32, Int32)	This is a variant of the update command that allows you to build, clean, deploy, or launch a single project configuration.
StartSimpleUpdateSolutionConfiguration(UInt32, UInt32, Int32)	Builds, cleans, or deploys a list of solutions.
UnadviseUpdateSolutionEvents(UInt32)	Removes the caller from the list of listeners for IVsUpdateSolutionEvents2 events.
UpdateSolutionConfigurationIsActive(Int32)	Checks for any build, clean, or deploy action in progress.
