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 to 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?

Solution 
  • MSBuild projectfile /property:Configuration=Debug
