I want to use ILMerge to merge a few .NET 1.1 assemblies, but I can't specify the platform version in the ILMerge custom action. Since there are more unused parameters in ILMerge, I would like to be able to specify custom parameters.

Hi Leroy,   
  
 Here’s a new build of FinalBuilder which has an extra property for specifying additional command line parameters for ILMerge, you can find the property under the ‘Other’ category in the action’s properties.   
  
 Url: [https://www.finalbuilder.com/downloads/finalbuilder/620/FB620\_1178.exe](https://www.finalbuilder.com/downloads/finalbuilder/620/FB620_1178.exe)  
  
 Regards,   
 Paul.

Hi Paul,   
  
 Thanks for your fast reply and the new build! We are currently evaluating FinalBuilder, so I am going to test it right away.

~~I have just installed the build you just posted, but I don't have the 'Other' category in the action's properties. I assume that by category you mean a tab, anyways I can't find any place to add additional commandline parameters.   
  
For the record, I have checked the build version in the about box and it matches the installer version. Also, the file date of FBILMerge.fbapx in the ActionDefs subdir of FinalBuilder is December 1st 2008, 11:29:39 AM.   
  
Did a wrong version slip into the installer?   
~~

Never mind, I found the setting. I was looking for the setting in the Actions Properties window, but it can be found in the properties tab&nbsp;on the left side of the IDE.

Thanks!

Regards,   
Leroy

I would like to specify /targetplatform:v4,“c:…\v4”   
  
 Are the additional command line parameters still availabe in the actual FinalBuilder version?   
  
 Kind regards,
