Thank you for this cool add-in. That's something that was really missing in VS. However, a little remark, it does not work accurately with batch builds (at least under VS2005), all builds appear as canceled when we expect the add in to report success or failure of each project.

Nice tool Cilu! This is really nice when you have very large solutions. It would be nice if you would be able to focus the error in the error list when you double click the failed project in the list / if it would show the last project error as a separate column / if it would show the number of errors.

Very nice tool! I use it and it has an user friendly interface, better then Output dialog! Now, I don't need to scroll all the output dialog content, just to find the projects that were not built and so on...

  • Pop up during build

    • Hi there,

      I was wondering what the easiest way to cause this window to pop up during a build event. I like having it hidden while coding, but sometimes forget to open it before a build. And depending on what part of the build I am at, Visual Studio is not responsive. Any suggestions would be great!

      Thanks,

      Jason
    • You'd like it to show up when starting a build, if it's not already shown? That would be possible, but I would not do that by default. I would rather provide an option for the users to choose whether they want it to pop up when a build starts.
