A command line tool for generating a .deployproj file from a .dproj in Delphi projects
NOTE This tool was "thrown together" and has had very little testing, so please bear that in mind. The code has been made available due to some interest in automating generation of .deployproj files without needing to use the Delphi IDE.
gendeployproj <DprojFileName> [0|1]
e.g.: gendeployproj C:\Projects\MyProject\MyProject.dproj 1
<DprojFileName> is the .dproj file for the project
[0|1] is an optional flag to indicate whether or not to overwrite the .deployproj if it exists. 0 (do not overwrite) is the default. If the .deployproj exists and 0 is specified, gendeployproj does nothing and returns an exit code of 0
The .deployproj file is created in the same folder as the .dproj
0 - Success. Note that this code is returned if the overwrite option is 0 and the .deployproj file exists
1 - .dproj file does not exist
2 - Could not read the .dproj file
3 - Could not find the ProjectExtensions or Deployment node in the .dproj (probably not a valid .dproj)
4 - Could not write the .deployproj file
