CallTarget Class

Definition

Implements the CallTarget task. Use the CallTarget element in your project file to create and execute this task. For usage and parameter information, see CallTarget Task.

This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Attributes

Remarks

This class implements the "CallTarget" task, which invokes other targets within the same project file. Marked RunInMTA because we do not want this task to ever be invoked explicitly on the STA if the RequestBuilder is running on another thread, as this will cause thread id validation checks to fail.

Constructors

CallTarget()

This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Initializes a new instance of the CallTarget class.

Properties

BuildEngine

The build engine automatically sets this property to allow tasks to call back into it.

(Inherited from Task)
BuildEngine2

The build engine automatically sets this property to allow tasks to call back into it. This is a convenience property so that task authors inheriting from this class do not have to cast the value from IBuildEngine to IBuildEngine2.

(Inherited from Task)
BuildEngine3

Retrieves the IBuildEngine3 version of the build engine interface provided by the host.

(Inherited from Task)
BuildEngine4

Retrieves the IBuildEngine4 version of the build engine interface provided by the host.

(Inherited from Task)
BuildEngine5

Retrieves the IBuildEngine5 version of the build engine interface provided by the host.

(Inherited from Task)
BuildEngine6

Retrieves the IBuildEngine6 version of the build engine interface provided by the host.

(Inherited from Task)
BuildEngine7

Retrieves the IBuildEngine7 version of the build engine interface provided by the host.

(Inherited from Task)
BuildEngine8

Retrieves the IBuildEngine8 version of the build engine interface provided by the host.

(Inherited from Task)
BuildEngine9

Retrieves the IBuildEngine9 version of the build engine interface provided by the host.

(Inherited from Task)
HelpKeywordPrefix

Gets or sets the prefix used to compose help keywords from string resource names. If a task does not have help keywords associated with its messages, it can ignore this property or set it to null. If the prefix is set to an empty string, then string resource names will be used verbatim as help keywords. For an example of how this prefix is used, see the TaskLoggingHelper.LogErrorWithCodeFromResources(string, object[]) method.

(Inherited from Task)
HostObject

The build engine sets this property if the host IDE has associated a host object with this particular task.

(Inherited from Task)
Log

This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Gets an instance of a TaskLoggingHelperExtension class containing task logging methods.

(Inherited from TaskExtension)
RunEachTargetSeparately

This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

When this is true, instead of calling the engine once to build all the targets (for each project), we would call the engine once per target (for each project). The benefit of this is that if one target fails, you can still continue with the remaining targets.

TargetOutputs

This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Outputs of the targets built in each project.

Targets

This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

The targets to build.

TaskResources

Gets or sets the task's culture-specific resources. Derived classes should register their resources either during construction, or via this property, if they have localized strings.

(Inherited from Task)
UseResultsCache

This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Deprecated. Does nothing.

Methods

Execute()

This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Instructs the MSBuild engine to build one or more targets in the current project.
