Microsoft.Build.Tasks Namespace

Contains the implementation of all tasks shipping with MSBuild. For information, see MSBuild.

Classes

AddToWin32Manifest

Generates an application manifest or adds an entry to the existing one when PreferNativeArm64 property is true.

AL

This class defines the "AL" XMake task, which enables using al.exe to link modules and resource files into assemblies.

AppDomainIsolatedTaskExtension

This class provides the same functionality as the Task class, but derives from MarshalByRefObject so that it can be instantiated in its own app domain.

AspNetCompiler

The AspNetCompiler task, which is a wrapper around aspnet_compiler.exe

AssignCulture

Class: AssignCulture

This task takes a list of resource file names and sets an attribute that contains the culture name embedded in the file name:

 MyResources.fr.resx     ==> Culture='fr'

The task can also return a list of "Culture-neutral" file names, like:

 MyGlyph.fr.bmp          ==> MyGlyph.bmp [Culture='fr']

This is because embedded resources are referred to this way.

There are plenty of corner cases with this task. See the unit test for more details.

Computes the checksum for a single file.

GetFrameworkPath

Returns the paths to the various frameworks versions.

GetFrameworkSdkPath

Returns paths to the frameworks SDK.

Interfaces

IFixedTypeInfo

The original ITypeInfo interface in the CLR has incorrect definitions for GetRefTypeOfImplType and GetRefTypeInfo. It uses ints for marshalling handles which will result in a crash on 64 bit systems. This is a temporary interface for use until the one in the CLR is fixed. When it is we can go back to using ITypeInfo.
