Script which deletes Release, Debug, & .ncb

[greekgoddj]

Hello,

I often wich to transfer my projects to other drives, networks, USB sticks, etc...and the contents of the Release and Debug directories in the project directory can take quite a bit of space. I end up manually deleting all those directories, as well as the .ncd file which can be regenerated everytime VS is loaded.

I was wondering whether anybody knows of a script/program that does that already. I have been thinking of writing one, but I am short on time and was hoping not to reinvent the wheel if somebody already knows of such a tool. Perhaps somebody has made one?

If this is a future little project, I would like to make it possible to call this "clean" routine from the pop up menu that appears when right clicking on the project directory.


Ciao,

Well, this batch file should delete all the files (it leaves the sub folders though):
@echo off
REM Pass in the 'base path' to the project:
REM cleanmybuild c:\projs\myproj
del /f /s /q %1\Debug
del /f /s /q %1\Release
This is not tested, but it should be enough to get you going.
