Compile a package

Invoke-D365ModuleFullCompile [-Module] <String> [[-OutputDir] <String>] [[-LogPath] <String>]
 [[-MetaDataDir] <String>] [[-ReferenceDir] <String>] [[-BinDir] <String>] [-ShowOriginalProgress]
 [-OutputCommandOnly] [<CommonParameters>]

Compile a package using the builtin "xppc.exe" executable to compile source code, "labelc.exe" to compile label files and "reportsc.exe" to compile reports

Invoke-D365ModuleFullCompile -Module MyModel

This will use the default paths and start the xppc.exe with the needed parameters to compile MyModel package. The default output from all the different steps will be silenced.

Invoke-D365ModuleFullCompile -Module MyModel -ShowOriginalProgress

This will use the default paths and start the xppc.exe with the needed parameters to copmile MyModel package. The default output from the different steps will be written to the console / host.
