It is also possible to compile a Debug version. This is only useful when hacking the code because
a Debug version is way slower than the Release one.
When the manual build works, it is possible to start it from the command line. This is useful
when setting up a build server or automating the process of retrieving the code and building
it in a scheduled task. To do that :
1. open a command line window
2. execute "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat"
or "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat" in a
64bit environment (Vista 64-bit or Windows7 64-bit)
You should see : "Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 x86 tools."

3. cd to the FlightGear project directory :
D:
cd \FGFSDevel\FlightGear\projects\VC90 (for example)
4. start the build with the command line below :
msbuild FlightGear.sln /p:Configuration=Release /m
or
msbuild FlightGear.sln /p:Configuration=Debug /m
That's all...
