How to build some project configurations with msbuild

The gtest's msvc directory has the gtest project file, and opening it with Visual Studio enables me t开发者_如何学运维o select the build out of 8 configurations(gtest/gtest_main/gtest_prod_test/gtest_unittest x release/debug) with Batch Build.

How can I do the same thing with msbuild tool? For example, how can I tell msbuild to build gtest/Debug or gtest_unittest/Release?

MSBuild projectfile /property:Configuration=Debug

Kyle Alons's answer works fine. When I run solution file that has four projects, it generates the release version of each project.

msbuild gtest-md.sln /property:Configuration=Release

I could run each project as follows, but the output names are based on solution name, so I need to modify to get correct results.

msbuild gtest-md.vcxproj /property:Configuration=Release

The solution was to specify target as follows.

msbuild gtest-md.sln /target:gtest-md /property:Configuration=Release
