Examples

The following example shows the code for a task that creates one or more directories.

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Security;
using System.Collections;
using Microsoft.Build.Framework;
using Microsoft.Build.Utilities;

namespace Microsoft.Build.Tasks
{
    /*
     * Class: MakeDir
     * An MSBuild task that creates one or more directories.
     */ 
    public class MakeDir : Task
    {
        // The Required attribute indicates the following to MSBuild: 
        //       - if the parameter is a scalar type, and it is not supplied, fail the build immediately 
        //       - if the parameter is an array type, and it is not supplied, pass in an empty array 
        // In this case the parameter is an array type, so if a project fails to pass in a value for the  
            // Directories parameter, the task will get invoked, but this implementation will do nothing, 
            // because the array will be empty.
        [Required]
            // Directories to create. 
        public ITaskItem[] Directories
        {

        }

        // The Output attribute indicates to MSBuild that the value of this property can be gathered after the 
        // task has returned from Execute(), if the project has an <Output> tag under this task's element for  
        // this property.
        [Output]
        // A project may need the subset of the inputs that were actually created, so make that available here. 
        public ITaskItem[] DirectoriesCreated
