/target:exe
-or-
/t:exe
The executable file will be created with the .exe extension.
Use /target:winexe/target:winexe to create a Windows program executable.
Unless otherwise specified with the /out option, the output file name takes the name of the input file that contains the Sub Main procedure.
When specified at the command line, all files up to the next /out, /target:winexe, or /target:library option are used to create the .exe. The /target:exe option is in effect for all files since the previous /out or /target:library option.
Only one Sub Main procedure is required in the source code files that are compiled into an .exe. The /main compiler option lets you specify which class contains the Sub Main procedure.
Each of the following command lines will compile in.vb
, creating a Windows program called in.exe
:
vbc /target:winexe in.vb vbc in.vb
