the issue with msbuild is that targets are not... the issue with msbuild is that targets are not composable, so you work always at the same level of abstraction. this is lousy for DRY 11:15 AM Jun 20th from Tweetie

Hi All, I'm currently writing a utility app and an associated custom build task to make using it easier. The issue is that I want this task to run as the first target and only stop at the point MSBuild completes all the other targets in the proj file. I'm currently writing a custom task that inherits the Task class in the framework. Is a Task even the correct way to approach this? Would...

Or what would be the easiest way to achieve the same ...

Is it possible to have MSBuild output to two seperate paths? Please excuse me if this is simplistic however, I am a dev that has always had a build manager handle this stuff. (Luck me!) Now I am beginning to take on this task. Also, if there are any top-notch MSBuild tutorials online or even books you would recommend, please pass those along as well. TIA Ryan

right now I use DevEnv (VS 2008) from command line to build our csharp projects. I wanted to replace that with MSBUILD. I was comparing the .dll files generated from my CSharp project from both MSbuild and devenv. Although the source code didnt change the comparison tool (Bitdiffer) shows that the two assemblies are different. I used .NET reflector and compared the two dlls. there was no ...

Hello Rajat, As far as I know, we could build ClickOnce application using command line. Please refer to this MSDN article: Building ClickOnce Applications from the Command Line . If this link does not help you, please feel free to tell us know. Best regards, Bessie

I'm glad the answer was unmarked as I am having a similar issue. I've given up on IncrementalBuilds because I simply can't trust that TFS will rebuild all the projects that contain "common.h". If I try, eventually I will run into a link error due to unresolved references as a result of changes to "common.h".
