Build & debug instructions for coapp.powershell #67

Open gordonwatts opened 10 years ago

A set of setup and config instructions so that anyone can build this project and run it under the debugger. This would help (me, at least) understand how things are running and if there are bugs perhaps even generate a pull request or two.

A few things:

You need sysinternal's tools installed and in the path.
There are a bunch of references in the CoApp.Powershell project (Icon.Zip, MSBuild.Extensions.Pack.XXX) that aren't in git and don't come down as part of nuget - but build seems just fine without them.

I've started small modifications on a fork with a readme file being filled in... If I can get all the way to debugging I'll send a pull request for it.

Spoke too soon about the extra references. Funny that nuget doesn't bring them down, and I now see they are needed in the release build!

Ok, can build in debug mode, and then uninstall CoApp, and then do "import-module coapp.psd1" and I get Write-NugetPackage working. However, it writes out only one nupkg - not the symbols and redist. I'm guessing (??) that it isn't picking up the etc directory correctly? How does it find that on an install like this? Certainly the command Show-CoAppEtcDirectory returns a bomb.
