I need to build all configurations in a VS&nbsp;solution file.

There's an Action.AllSolutionConfigurations() property, but it doesn't appear to set the action to build all configurations.&nbsp; There's no documentation for this property.&nbsp; What does it do?&nbsp; Is there another way to do this?&nbsp;

I did find a post that suggested iterating the text in the solution file.&nbsp; Surely that's not the best way to get FB&nbsp;to build everything.

Hi Ed  
  
The VS.NET action doesn't support building all configurations at once.. neither does devenv or msbuild. The AllSolutionConfigurations returns a list of the config names (one per line). So the trick is to get the list of configs first and then iterate through the list.

I have attached an example project that shows how to do this.
