@"Usage: Chiron [<options>]
Common usages:
Chiron.exe /b
Starts the web-server on port 2060, and opens the default browser
to the root of the web-server. This is used for developing an
application, as Chiron will rexap you application's directory for
every request.
Chiron.exe /d:app /z:app.xap
Takes the contents of the app directory and generates an app.xap
from it, which embeds the DLR and language assemblies according to
the settings in Chiron.exe.config. This is used for deployment,
so you can take the generated app.xap, along with any other files,
and host them on any web-server.
Options:
Note: forward-slashes (/) in option names can be substituted for dashes (-).
For example ""Chiron.exe -w"" instead of ""Chiron.exe /w"".
/w[ebserver][:<port number>]
Launches a development web server that automatically creates
XAP files for dynamic language applications (runs /z for every
request of a XAP file, but generates it in memory).
Optionally specifies server port number (default: 2060)
/b[rowser][:<start url>]
Launches the default browser and starts the web server
Implies /w, cannot be combined with /x or /z
/z[ipdlr]:<file>
Generates a XAP file, including dynamic language dependencies, and
auto-generates AppManifest.xaml (equivalent of /m in memory),
if it does not exist.
Does not start the web server, cannot be combined with /w or /b
/m[anifest]
Saves the generated AppManifest.xaml file to disk
Use /d to set the directory containing the sources
Can only be combined with /d, /n and /s
/d[ir[ectory]]:<path>
Specifies directory on disk (default: the current directory).
Implies /w.
/r[efpath]:<path>
Path where assemblies are located. Defaults to the same directory
where Chiron.exe exists.
Overrides appSettings.localAssemblyPath in Chiron.exe.config.
/p[ath]:<path1;path2;..;pathn>
Semi-colon-separated directories to be included in the XAP file,
in addition to what is specified by /d
/u[rlprefix]:<relative or absolute uri>
Appends a relative or absolute Uri to each language assembly or extension
added to the AppManifest.xaml. If a relative Uri is provided, Chiron
will serve all files located in the /refpath at this Uri, relative to the
root of the web-server.
Overrides appSettings.urlPrefix in Chiron.exe.config.
/nl /noLanguageDetection
Without this flag, Chiron scans the current application directory for files
with a valid language's file extension, and only makes those languages
available to the XAP file. See /useExtensions for whether the languages
assemblies or extension files are used.
With this flag, no language-specific assemblies/extensions are added to the
XAP, so the Silverlight application is responsible for parsing the
languages.config file in the XAP and downloading the languages it needs.
Overrides appSettings.detectLanguages in Chiron.exe.config.
/e /useExtensions:true|false (default false)
Toggles whether or not language and DLR assemblies are embedded in
the XAP file, or whether their equivalent extension files are used.
/a /anyAddress
By default Chiron listens on just the loopback IP address, meaning it only
works for local requests. Providing this flag will cause Chiron to
listen on any IP address, making it an internet-facing webserver. This
option should only be used during development when running the Silverlight
app on one machine and testing on many machines; Chiron is not optimized as
a production webserver.
/x[ap[file]]:<file>
Specifies XAP file to generate. Only XAPs a directory; does not
generate a manifest or add dynamic language DLLs; see /z for that
functionality.
Does not start the web server, cannot be combined with /w or /b
/notification
Display notification icon
/n[ologo]
