title: msdev batch compile a C# project
body: <p>I have downloaded the C# 2000 express edition and made a project.</p>
  
  <p>I can compile this project from the command prompt like this</p>
  
  <pre><code>"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\vcsexpress.exe" myProj.sln /build
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My question is, is there a more "platform/IDE" independed way of doing this ?</p>
  
  <p>Like this</p>
  
  <pre><code>msbuild myProj.sln /build
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Where msbuild is some fantastic microsoft windows built in tool that, not only find out that it is a C# project but also find the right compiler as well and start it.</p>
