Command to Perform a Release Build

Output goes to bin\ReleaseObfusc

msbuild BismNormalizer.csproj /verbosity:m /target:Rebuild /property:Configuration=Release

Set Up New Development Machine

Built in VS 2017. Workloads installed must include .NET desktop development and VS extension development.

May need to temporarily comment out following at bottom of BismNormalizer.csproj to load project into VS for 1st time. After 1st successful load, add it back.

Import Project="..\packages\MSBuild.Extension.Pack.1.8.0\build\net40\MSBuild.Extension.Pack.targets"

Update: 4/23/2018: AMO libraries are now accessed through NuGet references, so no longer necessary to install AMO client libraries from the MSI.

Do a Release build from the command-line to set up cross project references for the 1st time (see command above). The automated tests refer to a localhost SSAS tabular server.
