Aaron Laws commented on JENKINS-13863: -------------------------------------- There we go! Just change the documentation to make the implementation correct! Although the documentation is still probably lacking a bit. Perhaps {panel:title=| borderStyle = dashed}This is the absolute path to the project file MSBuild will use. Alternatively, if the project file is in the root directory of the project's workspace, simply the name of the project file will suffice.{panel} Can someone give me directions on compiling the {{MSBuild Plugin}} and testing it locally? I would be happy to give this a whack. It seems like it should be simple. Most frameworks can resolve relative paths. > MSBuild is unable to build projects in a different directory > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: JENKINS-13863 > URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-13863 > Project: Jenkins > Issue Type: Bug > Components: msbuild > Affects Versions: current > Environment: MS Windows Server 2008 > Reporter: Aaron Laws > Assignee: kdsweeney > Priority: Minor > Labels: path, plugin > Attachments: badbuild.txt, badconfig.PNG, betterbuild.txt, > goodbuild.txt, goodconfig.PNG > > > I use SVN to checkout a project to {{.\proj\}} and a dependency to > {{.\dep\}}.
