Compiling Policy Plus

You can acquire the Policy Plus source code by cloning with Git:

git clone https://github.com/Fleex255/PolicyPlus.git

It is recommended to set Git to ignore local changes to the autogenerated version file:

git update-index --assume-unchanged PolicyPlus\Version.vb

You can run version.bat at any time to replace that file with one that specifies your current commit.

Policy Plus is developed with Visual Studio 2019 Community. (Fancier Visual Studio editions will work too.)

To compile, open PolicyPlus.sln or PolicyPlus.vbproj (from the PolicyPlus folder) in Visual Studio. Set the Solution Configurations dropdown to Release (or Debug for a debug build). Choose Build | Build PolicyPlus from the main menu. The result is PolicyPlus.exe, which is set to run on 32-bit or 64-bit environments, preferring to run in a 64-bit process. You can find that file in the subfolder of bin that corresponds to the build type.
