VCConfiguration Interface
The VCConfiguration object programmatically accesses the properties in the General property page of a project's Property Pages dialog box. This object also allows access to the tools used to build this configuration.
Assembly: Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine.dll)
The VCConfiguration type exposes the following members.

|
CharacterSet | Gets or sets a value that tells the compiler to use the specified character set. |
|
ConfigurationName | Gets or sets the project configuration to be built. |
|
ConfigurationType | Gets or sets the type of output this configuration generates. |
|

|
project | Gets the VCProject associated with the VCConfiguration. |
|
PropertySheets | Gets all property sheets for the project. |
|
RegisterOutput | Gets a value indicating whether the configuration registers the primary output of this build. |
|
Rules | Gets a collection of IVCRulePropertyStorage objects that can modify to project-level properties and default item metadata defined in this property sheet. |

SqlPreDeployScript | Sets or gets the script for per SQL deploy activity. |
|
Tools | Gets the available tools for the configuration. |
|
UpToDate | Gets a value indicating whether the current configuration's build state is up to date. |
|
useOfATL | Gets or sets a value indicating how ATL is used by the configuration. |
|
useOfMfc | Gets or sets how MFC is used by the configuration. |
|
VCProjectEngine | Gets a pointer to the project engine. |
|
WholeProgramOptimization | Gets or sets cross-module optimizations by delaying code generation to link time. WholeProgramOptimization exposes the functionality of the compiler's /GL (Whole Program Optimization) option. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
AddPropertySheet | Adds a property sheet to the collection of property sheets directly imported by a configuration. |
|
Build | Builds the current configuration. |
|
BuildAndCallback | Begins an asynchronous build of this configuration. |
|
BuildWithProperty | Begins an asynchronous build with a given property set to some value beyond what is defined in the project file. |
|
BuildWithPropertySheet | Used to set properties for builds. |
|
BuildWithPropertySheetPath | Specifies a property sheet search path. |
