.NET : Unable to build 'X86' and 'Any CPU' projects together

Hi,

I am evaluating BM for my team and having no way to get through this.

I build a exe. project (using Build .NET Project action or MSBuild action) and this is set up as an X86 project (Target Platforms - X86)since it contains some references to unmanaged code and does some Pinvoke stuff. This project refers to other projects which are built with 'Any Cpu' settings. (Target Platform- Any Cpu).

When I build this X86 executable project, I get an eror as 'Output path is not defined for all configruations in the the 'Any Cpu' project. No output path for Release and X86' in the referenced project. '

It works fine when I build the solution in VS. But with BM, again, I cannot build solution because I just cannot set bin\debug of all projects as the target dirs of respective projects and hence all the projects' output to a fixed single target dir folder. Hence, I had to go with building projects that need to be deployed but in this case stuck up with this output path issue !

How do I get around this. I am really stuck up having tried several options to build this project !

Any help is appreciated.

I think the problem may have to do with your project/solution configuration (i.e. .sln and .vbproj/.csproj files).

In the action's execution log, you can see the exact command run by the Action. I would suggest to run that command at your desktop, and then try to see what specific project is missing the output path... and then tweak the project files.
