 Posted: Fri Oct 21, 2022 8:44 am Post subject: Visual Studio C# filter |
 |
|
I'm considering using ViceVersa Pro for creating backup of Visual Studio C# solutions (projects, source files) but without the binaries that are generated during compilation.
I'm familiar with the modern way of doing software development using git, but sometimes file backups is a better solution.
Anyone already created a file/folder filter for this purpose? Willing to share?
Kind regards,
Michael |

Hi, we use ViceVersa PRO to backup C++ projects. We exclude :
*.obj - object code
*.pdb - program debug databse file
*.bsc - source browser database
*.ilk - incremental linker file
*.sbr - source browser intermediate file
*.idb - rebuild dependency file
*.lib - library file
*.exe - executable

I appreciate the feedback, thanks!
Looking for similar for C# and IDE Visual Studio I stumbled over the gitignore repository at github.com. I can't include link here, but search for gitignore and it should appear.
It seem "they" have included most of what you use, except for a few they have left out, and an addition of a bunch more.
The corresponding gitignore file for C# development using Visual Studio is much more involved, including by example a bunch of folders with letters that can be spelled with capital or lower case letters etc.
By example part of the "Build results" section use:
| Code: | # Build results
[Dd]ebug/
[Dd]ebugPublic/
[Rr]elease/
[Rr]eleases/
x64/
x86/
[Ww][Ii][Nn]32/ |
And there are also some sections that that doesn't look trivial to translate into ViceVersa settings:
| Code: | # Visual Studio 2017 auto generated files
Generated\ Files/
# MSTest test Results
[Tt]est[Rr]esult*/
[Bb]uild[Ll]og.* |
How can I "translate" above gitignore syntax to ViceVersa filtering?
Feature idea? Import gitignore files?
Kind regards,
Michael |

Hi, thanks, I think these are Regex filters, they should be able to be used in ViceVersa as well using the <r> prefix. See Filter Syntax in help. I will test them.
