Dev Environment for PowerShell

Link. March 13, 2008. Comments [0]. Posted in: .NET | PowerShell

A few people have asked already about my PowerShell script for configuring a development environment for .NET / Visual Studio / SDK work, so I thought I might as well break it into it's own script.

Here it is:

###############################################################################      
# Configures the .NET / Visual Studio / Windows SDK      
# Build environment. Loosely based on the SDK batch files.      
#       
# First it will try to set up the environment for .NET 3.5      
# and VS2008. Failing that, falls back to .NET 3.0/VS2005.      
###############################################################################      
      
$NETFXDIR = "$env:WINDIR\Microsoft.NET\Framework"      
$FX20 = "$NETFXDIR\v2.0.50727"      
$FX35 = "$NETFXDIR\v3.5"      
      
function script:append-path {       
   $env:PATH += ';' + $args      
}       
function script:append-lib {      
   if ( test-path('Env:\LIB') ) {      
      $env:LIB += ';' + $args      
   } else {      
      $env:LIB = $args      
   }      
}       
function script:append-include {       
   if ( test-path('Env:\INCLUDE') ) {      
      $env:INCLUDE += ';' + $args      
   } else {      
      $env:INCLUDE = $args      
   }      
}       
function script:get-vsdir([string] $version) {      
   $regpath = "HKLM:SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\$version"      
   if ( test-path($regpath) ) {      
      $regKey = get-itemproperty $regpath      
      return $regkey.InstallDir      
   }      
   return $null      
}      
function script:set-vsenv([string] $version) {      
   $VSDIR = (get-vsdir $version)      
   if ( $VSDIR -ne $null ) {      
      append-path $VSDIR      
      append-path "$VSDIR..\..\VC\bin"      
      append-path "$VSDIR..\Tools"      
       
      append-include "$VSDIR..\..\VC\include"      
      append-lib "$VSDIR..\..\VC\lib"      
      return $true      
   }      
   return $false      
}      
function script:get-psdkdir {      
   $regpath = "HKLM:SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\"      
   if ( test-path($regpath) ) {      
      $regKey = get-itemproperty $regpath      
      return $regkey.CurrentInstallFolder      
   }      
   return $null      
}      
function script:set-psdkenv {      
   $sdkdir = (get-psdkdir)      
   if ( ($sdkdir -ne $null) -and (test-path $sdkdir) ) {      
      append-path "$sdkdir\bin"      
      if ( test-path "$sdkdir\include" ) {       
         append-include "$sdkdir\include"  
      }      
      if ( test-path "$sdkdir\lib" ) {      
         append-lib "$sdkdir\lib"      
      }      
   }      
}      
      
set-psdkenv      
# if .NET 3.5 is installed, default to that, otherwise use 2.0      
if ( test-path($FX35) ) {      
   append-path $FX35      
}      
append-path $FX20      
if ( -not (set-vsenv "9.0") ) {      
   [void] (set-vsenv "8.0")      
}

Feel free to customize as you see fit :-) .
