Compile

To compile the source code yourself, you're going to need to have the followings:

• Visual Studio 2019 or newer
• WiX Toolset
• VSWhere
• A release of Enhancer.SemVer.dll from Enhancer.NET

Preparation

1. Install Visual Studio and WiX Toolset. Follow their installation instructions.
2. Download VSWhere and copy the vswhere.exe to a directory within the PATH environment variable.
3. Open Notepad, and copy the following lines in to it:

@echo off

for /f "tokens=1 delims=." %%i in ("%~1") do (
    set major=%%i
)

set /a major=major+1

for /f "usebackq tokens=*" %%i in (`vswhere.exe -version "[%~1,%major%.0)" -products * -requires Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.VC.Tools.x86.x64 -find **\vsdevcmd.bat`) do (
    set VSD=%%i
)

shift /1

if exist "%VSD%" (
    "%VSD%" %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
)
else
(
    exit /b %errorlevel%
)

4. Save the file as VsDev.cmd in a folder listed in the PATH environment variable.
5. Download and unpack the Enhancer.NET library packages and copy the Enhancer.SemVer.dll to the References folder of the repository root.

At this point you now can compile the project.
