MSBuildGlobWithGaps Class

Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.Build.Globbing

Assembly:

Microsoft.Build.dll

Package:

Microsoft.Build v17.9.5

A glob with gaps. The gaps are represented as other globs.
For example, to express a glob that matches all .cs files except the ones containing "foo" and the ones under bin directories, one can use:

new MSBuildGlobWithGaps(
   MSBuildGlob.Parse("**/*.cs"),            // matches all .cs files
   new CompositeGlob(                       // a composite glob to combine all the gaps
      MSBuildGlob.Parse("**/*foo*.cs"),     // matches .cs files containing "foo"
      MSBuildGlob.Parse("**/bin/**/*.cs")   // matches .cs files under bin directories
   )
)
