Visual Studio shell
This GitHub action sets up a Visual Studio shell in your workflow run.
This is similar to running one of the vcvars*.bat scripts or launching one of the "Command Tools for VS" Start Menu shortcuts, but it's also shell-agnostic.
Use it in your workflow like this:
- name: Set up Visual Studio shell
uses: egor-tensin/vs-shell@v2
with:
arch: x64
x64
is the default value for thearch
parameter and can be omitted. Usex86
(orWin32
) if you want to build 32-bit binaries.
API
Input | Value | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
arch | x64 | ✓ | Build 64-bit executables. |
x86 | Build 32-bit executables. | ||
Win32 | Build 32-bit executables. |
The action passes the environment variables set by one of the vcvars*.bat scripts to the calling job.
