  • Article

The Label task attaches a label to the specified version of the files in the workspace.

Parameters

Property Description

Workspace

Specifies the workspace name.

Name

Specifies the label name.

Version

Specifies the version of the file or folder.

Files

Specifies the items to be labeled.

Recursive

Specifies whether or not the files are labeled recursively.

Remarks

The Label task is defined in the Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.Tasks.VersionControl.dll. The Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.targets file contains an instance of the Label task that Team Foundation Build uses as a default implementation for the CoreLabel target. You can also customize the build process by defining a different instance of the Label task for a build type in the TfsBuild.proj file. For more information, see How to: Modify the Scope of Changesets and Work Items Associated With a Build Type.

Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.targets file is stored in the <root>:\Program Files\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v8.0\TeamBuild folder on the Team Foundation Build computer.
