# Introduction

The **Add UpdateAllAndRun.bat** command adds a batch file to the project which will update FlatRedBall, build it, and run it. This is a convenient way to build and run FlatRedBall from source rather than relying on the prebuilt binaries.

When this command is executed a .bat file is created. The location of this bat file is shown in the output window so it can be inspected. For instance, the output window may display the following text:

```
11:12:39.4 - Added batch file to:
C:/Users/vchel/Downloads/Temp/frb-fail-RefreshLayoutInternal-GumExperiments/GumExperiments/UpdateAllAndRunFrb.bat
```

The contents of .bat may look like this:

```
:: Get the latest code for your project
git fetch
git pull
:: Get the latest Gum
cd ..\Gum
git fetch
git pull
:: Get the latest FlatRedBall
cd ..\FlatRedBall
git fetch
git pull
:: Build Glue with All solution
cd FRBDK\Glue
dotnet build ""Glue with All.sln""
:: Run the newly built Glue
cd Glue\bin\x86\Debug\netcoreapp3.0\
start GlueFormsCore.exe
```

This script assumes your current Glue project, FlatRedBal, and Gum are all in the same parent folder. To specify a different location for those source code folders, change the folders in the various **cd** commands.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.flatredball.com/flatredball/glue-reference/menu/update/add-updateallandrun-bat.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
