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)
CertificateThumbprint	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the certificate to use for signing.
DisallowMansignTimestampFallback
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	Gets an instance of a TaskLoggingHelper class containing task logging methods. The taskLoggingHelper is a MarshallByRef object which needs to have MarkAsInactive called if the parent task is making the appdomain and marshaling this object into it. If the appdomain is not unloaded at the end of the task execution and the MarkAsInactive method is not called this will result in a leak of the task instances in the appdomain the task was created within. (Inherited from Task)
SigningTarget	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the files to sign with the certificate.
TargetFrameworkIdentifier
TargetFrameworkVersion
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)
TimestampUrl	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the URL of a time stamping server.
