Handy VCVARSALL wrapper

Question

I have multiple Visual Studio versions installed (2010, 2012 and 2013 for now). Each comes with its on VCVARSALL.BAT. Whenever I want to target one of the environments I need to run the proper batch file.

Is there a handy wrapper that does accepts something like: VCVARS 2010 x86 and runs the appropriate batch file? Writing one is simple, but I'd rather not do it if someone else already has.

Answer 1

I ended up writing a simple batch file that does this.

It can be found as a snippet at Snippler

The batch file looks for Visual Studio in the default installation location on a 64-bit machine. I didn't need anything else. If someone does, the Visual Studio installation location can be found by following this answer
