PCF Builder

John Thibodeau ()

I'm regret that my experience with this tool has been rather buggy. I got it to execute one time through XrmToolbox and have been experimenting with msbuild environmental variable and tool settings ever since. As it is now, after I add the 'control location', 'namespace', 'control name', and template - the resulting command just doesn't seem to execute. Perhaps I have a future in penetration testing? On launch, the error I receive is 'Could not retrieve existing PCF project and CDS solution project details'. After parameters are entered and execution is attempted this morphs into the ubiquitous 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.' I've had some success using 'settings' to reset the path prior to launching. Before you ask, I have unblocked all the XrmToolbox dependent files from executing - I may try to pull the code down and try execute it locally. I'm deeply enjoying your book surrounding PCF. I doubt this will stop me.
