WEBCON BPS SDK Tools does not start after Update to Visual Studio 2022 v17.12.x

Hi Marco

Just to let you know, I have the same problem after an unattended update of Visual Studio by our Sys-Admins.

Hi,

thanks for the heads up.

In this case I will postpone it, on the other side I'm not using the SDK tools much anyway :)

Best regards,

I have the same problem.(bps tools 2022-2025) So, how can we publish an extension package without the WEBCON BPS SDK Tools?

The publishing mechanism for a simple SDK, no form field extension, is:
- Updating the assembly version number
- Create a .zip package with the necessary .dlls and the JSON file containing the SDK actions

I've created two PowerShell scripts which I execute as
Pre-build event: IncreaseRevisionNumber.ps1
Post-build event: CreatePackage.ps1
https://github.com/Daniel-Krueger/webcon_xmlToItemList/blob/main

<PropertyGroup>
<PreBuildEvent>powershell $(SolutionDir)\IncreaseRevisionNumber.ps1 -absoluteProjectFolder $(ProjectDir)</PreBuildEvent>
</PropertyGroup>
<PropertyGroup>
<PostBuildEvent>powershell $(SolutionDir)\CreatePackage.ps1 -targetDir '$(TargetDir)' -projectDir '$(ProjectDir)' -projectName '$(ProjectName)' </PostBuildEvent>
</PropertyGroup>

You may need to update the package file, to exclude more files.

Best regards,
Daniel

Thanks.
