Microsoft.Build.Execution Namespace

Contains types that the MSBuild object model uses to build projects. For information, see MSBuild.

Classes

BuildManager	This class is the public entry point for executing builds.
BuildParameters	This class represents all of the settings which must be specified to start a build.
BuildRequestData	BuildRequestData encapsulates all of the data needed to submit a build request.
BuildResult	Contains the current results for all of the targets which have produced results for a particular configuration.
BuildSubmission	A BuildSubmission represents an build request which has been submitted to the BuildManager for processing. It may be used to execute synchronous or asynchronous build requests and provides access to the results upon completion.
HostServices	Implementation of HostServices that mediates access from the build to the host.
OutOfProcNode	This class represents an implementation of INode for out-of-proc nodes.
ProjectInstance	What the user gets when they clone off a ProjectInstance. They can hold onto this, change/query items and properties, and call it several times to build it.
ProjectItemDefinitionInstance	An evaluated item definition for a particular item-type, divested of all references to XML. Immutable.
ProjectItemGroupTaskInstance	Wraps an unevaluated itemgroup under a target. Immutable.
ProjectItemGroupTaskItemInstance	Wraps an unevaluated item under an itemgroup in a target. Immutable.
ProjectItemGroupTaskMetadataInstance	Wraps an unevaluated metadatum under an item in an itemgroup in a target Immutable.
ProjectItemInstance	Wraps an evaluated item for build purposes
ProjectMetadataInstance	Wraps an evaluated piece of metadata for build purposes Added and removed via methods on the ProjectItemInstance object. IMMUTABLE OBJECT.
ProjectOnErrorInstance	Wraps an onerror element
ProjectPropertyGroupTaskInstance	Wraps an unevaluated propertygroup under a target. Immutable.
ProjectPropertyGroupTaskPropertyInstance	Wraps an unevaluated property under an propertygroup in a target. Immutable.
ProjectPropertyInstance	Wraps an evaluated property for build purposes. Added and removed via methods on the ProjectInstance object.
ProjectTargetInstance	Wraps a target element
ProjectTargetInstanceChild	Type for ProjectTaskInstance and ProjectPropertyGroupTaskInstance and ProjectItemGroupTaskInstance allowing them to be used in a single collection of target children
ProjectTaskInstance	Wraps a task element
ProjectTaskInstanceChild	Type for TaskOutputItem and TaskOutputProperty allowing them to be used in a single collection
ProjectTaskOutputItemInstance	Wraps an output item element under a task element
ProjectTaskOutputPropertyInstance	Represents an output property element beneath a task element
RequestedProjectState	Interface defining properties, items, and metadata of interest for a BuildRequestData.
TargetResult	Contains the result items for a single target as well as the overall result code.

Structs
