Hey folks!

I could use a little help.&nbsp; My project requires a run through Dotfuscator that also requires a command line parameter to be passed to the Dotfuscator executable.&nbsp; I saw the parameter/value table on the screen for configuring the Dotfuscator step, but that doesn't just jump out at me as being a list of command line parameters necessarily.&nbsp; Through the magic of virtual machines,&nbsp;Dotfuscator takes 6 hours to perform its duties, so testing can be quite cumbersome.&nbsp; Can anyone help shed some light on this for me?&nbsp;&nbsp;What I have is a batch script that adds \inpl:on as the command line parameter so that my command line looks like the following:

"C:\Program Files\PreEmptive Solutions\Dotfuscator Professional Edition 4.6\dotfuscator.exe" /inpl:on IP60Dotfuscator.xml

Thanks a bunch in advance!

-Bryan

Hi Bryan,   
  
 The ‘Properties’ field allows you to specify values for user defined properties in the configuration file. To add a parameter to the command line which hasn’t been exposed via the action’s property pages you can add it to the ‘Extra Command Line at End/Start’ property, which can be accessed from the ‘Properties’ tab (select action -\> View -\> Action Properties Tab (F12)). This property is available on most actions that execute external tools.   
  
 Regards,   
 Paul.
