构建计算机是否需要单独的Visual Studio许可证? [英] Is a separate Visual Studio license required for a build machine?
问题描述
我知道有些公司允许您根据需要将其产品安装在构建计算机上，而无需单独的许可证(DevExpress是我想到的一个).但是我想知道微软是否对许可证有相同的配额.
I know that some companies allow you to install their products on build machines as required without requiring a separate license (DevExpress is one that comes to mind). However I was wondering if Microsoft had the same allowances on licenses.
MSBuild不直接支持vdproj，并且要求您从命令行运行Visual Studio来构建安装项目.参见这里
MSBuild does not support vdproj directly and require you to run Visual Studio from the command line to build the setup project. See here
我需要通过自动构建来生成安装文件；我需要为构建计算机购买额外的许可证吗?
I need to produce a setup file via an automated build; do I need to purchase an additional license for the build machine?
编辑:我已经与负责授权的管理员进行了交谈，他为我很高兴在不购买其他许可证的情况下在构建计算机上安装VS2008感到高兴，他认为不需要许可证.如果我在此处提供更多官方信息，我将再次更新.
Edit: I have spoken to our admin in charge of licensing and he was happy for me to install VS2008 on the build machine without purchasing an additional license, believing that a license should not be required. If I here more official information I will update again.
编辑2 :我听说微软将允许VS2008安装在构建计算机上，只要开发人员没有将该实例用于活动开发即可.
Edit 2: I have heard that Microsoft will allow VS2008 to be installed on a build machine as long as the instance is not being used by a developer for active development.
推荐答案
Here is the agreement (PDF link!). (There are different ones for different versions of VS). So it depends on how you read ...
常规.一个用户可以安装和使用该软件的副本来设计，开发，测试和演示您的程序.测试不包括在生产环境中在服务器上的暂存，例如事先加载内容 用于生产.
General. One user may install and use copies of the software to design, develop, test and demonstrate your programs. Testing does not include staging on a server in a production environment, such as loading content prior to production use.
对我来说，您不需要其他许可证，因为一个用户可以安装和使用副本.但是，我不是律师. :)
To me that says you don't need an additional license because one user can install and use copies. But, I am not a lawyer. :)
