The following code is an example of how to use the command line tool to compile all projects contained in folders below the folder which holds this batch file. Save it with a .bat extension and double-click to run. It writes a summary of the results to a file called result.txt and the details of each compilation to detail.txt.
Note that if the -Output parameter is not specified then no APK file will be produced.
