Build.Settings.bat

All of the bat files call this file to get the properties to set. To make sure we are DRY, we want one file to set up everything in and use those settings from all of the other batch files.

Setup

We need to answer a series of questions about your application so that uppercut can automatically build it for you. To get up and running fast, we have already included a series of conventions so that you will only need to answer questions when things are different.

Here are the three questions most people need to answer.

SET PROJECT_NAME="__SOLUTION_NAME_WITHOUT_SLN_EXTENSION__"

SET REPO_PATH="__FULL_REPOSITORY_PATH__"

SET COMPANY_NAME="__COMPANY__"

becomes

SET PROJECT_NAME="uppercut" 

SET REPO_PATH="http://uppercut.googlecode.com/svn/" 

SET COMPANY_NAME="FerventCoder Software and ACuriousMind Software"

My solution name is uppercut.sln, so I include it as the project name without the .sln extension. The repository path is not down to a trunk or a branch, but at the very top level of the repository.  The company is either a company you work for or your own personal company if you are open source.

Here is the contents of the build.settings.bat file:
