lprun /compileOnly ?

Tormod

is it possible to have the lprun.exe command just report on wether a given query compiles or not?
It will allow a build server to report on wether or not a set of queries will execute with the newest build. I am aware of the /warnings switch, but this would cause the queries to execute. I just want to know wether or not they compile.

No, I've not considered this. By 'newest build', do you mean the newest LINQPad build, or the newest build of one of your assemblies?

Tormod

Oh, sorry for not being clear. I manage a set of LINQPad queries that consume libraries that I have in a CI build. Advanced Users expect said LINQPad queries to be compatible with the output of the CI build.
So "newest build" refers to my own assemblies.

There's no built-in feature for this. You could add a parameter to your query to tell it to do nothing as a workaround.

Tormod

Thank you. They are not normally executed through lprun being mostly C# expressions and C# statements. To make them all C# programs with donothing parameter handling would make them contrived. It is a good option for checking myextensions, though.

I'll be adding a -compileonly switch in the next beta release, due soon. Stay posted.

Thank you. Much appreciated.
