Show AX Compile progress (AXCompileProgressV1.00)

For some time now i wanted a tool that would show me the progress of a Compilation in AX, so i made this little tool.

It uses the AOT compile log, that you can enable in AX2012, by going to Tools\Options\Development\Compiler


And put a tick in AOT log:

Ax will now generate a compilation log in the given folder named AOTComp.log

Now my program will look at that logfile and from that calculate and show a progress bar for the compilation progress.

Right now the program might be very buggy since this is the first version, and also it will only look for the logfile under the current users Microsoft\Dynamics AX\Log folder, but i will change that in later versions.
Also the program needs to "run as Administrator", i will see if i can fix that also.

You can download the program from this link (AXCompileProgressV1.00.zip)

Please do leave a comment if you find the program useful, have a bug or a suggestion for a change.

Dynamics AX use of the startupcmd parameter

If you start ax32.exe with -startupcmd you can use this to automate some tasks. Like for instance this command will perform a full compile of all elements in AX. ax32.exe -startupcmd=CompileAll Here is a full list of all the startupcmd parameters in AX2009 and AX2012. The code that controls this can be found in Class SysStartupCmd method construct. You can also add your own commands by adding them to this method.

I previously made a program to list, start and stop Dynamics AX Services. But i always through that is missed a few features, so now I am starting on this new version. ( Download link )  This is version 1.03 see change list at the end of the post. In this version the big thing i added was that you can now start/stop and restart more that one service in one go. The program is tested for AX 2009 and AX 2012. When you start the program this is what you will see: On the left you will see the list of services that you have, and on the right the list of possible AX configurations. Config menu. Under the menu item, Tools/Config, you can change the programs settings. Here you can add/remove computers to look for services on. To remove a computer from the list, double click on the item.
