Programmatically Changing Build Specifications from command line

[sumguy16]

I use a batch file that calls a VI to build several LV projects.  I found the article http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/5051 to get started and build projects; however, I was wondering if anyone has been able to change build specifications without opening the Application Builder dialog?  -> I would like to build an app. with a version number using the command syntax:  labview.exe <mybuild.vi> -- "project1.lvproj" "version number"

Any thoughts regarding this problem?

Thanks,
Adam

I have done some research and there doesn't seem to be a way to change the version number when building a project with this method.  If I find out otherwise I will post to let you know but I don't think it is possible.  I would look for another way to accomplish what you want by incorporating the version into the file name or something like that.

Any developments on this topic?  Can we change the target path of the build specification?

Hi Terry_ALE,

Here is a forum post which has an attached example of programmatically changing the path of your application:
