Building Castle ActiveRecord from Source at GitHub
To follow the steps described in the post you will need:
Visit https://github.com/castleproject/ActiveRecord and copy to clipboard the URL for Read-Only access.
Create an empty directory and select the entry named “Git Clone…” on the Windows Explorer Context Menu.
Click OK in the next screen and wait while Git is downloading the project files.
When finished, you can browse the project files in the specified directory.
The default is to build for version 4.0 of the .NET Framework. If you need to build for an older version you can edit the build.cmd file (it is actually a batch file).
The project's build platform is MSBuild as you can see from the Console Output above.
Open folder “build” which is the project's build output.
As you may notice, the project now uses Remotion's re-linq provider.
To have a working data access layer in minutes, add a reference to:
- Castle.ActiveRecord.dll
- Castle.Components.Validator.dll
