Properties

AllowedAssemblyExtensions

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

[default=.exe;.dll] These are the assembly extensions that will be considered during references resolution.

AllowedRelatedFileExtensions

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

[default=.pdb;.xml] These are the extensions that will be considered when looking for related files.

AppConfigFile

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

If this file name is passed in, then we parse it as an app.config file and extract bindingRedirect mappings. These mappings are used in the dependency calculation process to remap versions of assemblies.

If this parameter is passed in, then AutoUnify must be false, otherwise error.

Assemblies

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

These can either be simple fusion names like:

 System

or strong names like

System, Version=2.0.3500.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089

These names will be resolved into full paths and all dependencies will be found.

Optional attributes are: bool Private [default=true] -- means 'CopyLocal' string HintPath [default=''] -- location of file name to consider as a reference, used when {HintPathFromItem} is one of the paths in SearchPaths. bool SpecificVersion [default=absent] -- when true, the exact fusionname in the Include must be matched. when false, any assembly with the same simple name will be a match. when absent, then look at the value in Include. If its a simple name then behave as if specific version=false. If its a strong name then behave as if specific version=true. string ExecutableExtension [default=absent] -- when present, the resolved assembly must have this extension. when absent, .dll is considered and then .exe for each directory looked at. string SubType -- only items with empty SubTypes will be considered. Items with non-empty subtypes will be ignored. string AssemblyFolderKey [default=absent] -- supported for legacy AssemblyFolder resolution. This key can have a value like 'hklm\vendor folder'. When set, only this particular assembly folder key will be used. This is to support the scenario in VSWhidey#357946 in which there are multiple side-by-side libraries installed and the user wants to pick an exact version. bool EmbedInteropTyeps [default=absent] -- when true, we should treat this assembly as if it has no dependencies and should be completely embedded into the target assembly.

AssemblyFiles

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

A list of fully qualified paths-to-assemblyFiles to find dependencies for.

Optional attributes are: bool Private [default=true] -- means 'CopyLocal' string FusionName -- the simple or strong fusion name for this item. If this attribute is present it can save time since the assembly file won't need to be opened to get the fusion name. bool ExternallyResolved [default=false] -- indicates that the reference and its dependencies are resolved by an external system (commonly from nuget assets) and so several steps can be skipped as an optimization: finding dependencies, satellite assemblies, etc.

AssemblyInformationCacheOutputPath

If not null, serializes information about AssemblyFiles inputs to the named file. This overrides the usual outputs, so do not use this unless you are building an SDK with many references.

AssemblyInformationCachePaths

If not null, uses this set of caches as inputs if RAR cannot find the usual cache in the obj folder. Typically used for demos and first-run scenarios.

AutoUnify

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

[default=false] This parameter is used for building assemblies, such as DLLs, which cannot have a normal App.Config file.

When true, the resulting dependency graph is automatically treated as if there were an App.Config file passed in to the AppConfigFile parameter. This virtual App.Config file has a bindingRedirect entry for each conflicting set of assemblies such that the highest version assembly is chosen. A consequence of this is that there will never be a warning about conflicting assemblies because every conflict will have been resolved.

When true, each distinct remapping will result in a high priority comment indicating the old and new versions and the fact that this was done automatically because AutoUnify was true.

When true, the AppConfigFile parameter should be empty. Otherwise, it's an error.

When false, no assembly version remapping will occur automatically. When two versions of an assembly are present, there will be a warning.

When false, each distinct conflict between different versions of the same assembly will result in a high priority comment. After all of these comments are displayed, there will be a single warning with a unique error code and text that reads "Found conflicts between different versions of reference and dependent assemblies".

BuildEngine

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

CandidateAssemblyFiles

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

A list of assembly files that can be part of the search and resolution process. These must be absolute filenames, or project-relative filenames.

Assembly files in this list will be considered when SearchPaths contains {CandidateAssemblyFiles} as one of the paths to consider.

CopyLocalDependenciesWhenParentReferenceInGac

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

When determining if a dependency should be copied locally one of the checks done is to see if the parent reference in the project file has the Private metadata set or not. If that metadata is set then We will use that for the dependency as well.

However, if the metadata is not set then the dependency will go through the same checks as the parent reference. One of these checks is to see if the reference is in the GAC. If a reference is in the GAC then we will not copy it locally as it is assumed it will be in the gac on the target machine as well. However this only applies to that specific reference and not its dependencies.

This means a reference in the project file may be copy local false due to it being in the GAC but the dependencies may still be copied locally because they are not in the GAC. This is the default behavior for RAR and causes the default value for this property to be true.

When this property is false we will still check project file references to see if they are in the GAC and set their copy local state as appropriate. However for dependencies we will not only check to see if they are in the GAC but we will also check to see if the parent reference from the project file is in the GAC. If the parent reference from the project file is in the GAC then we will not copy the dependency locally.

NOTE: If there are multiple parent reference and ANY of them does not come from the GAC then we will set copy local to true.

CopyLocalFiles

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

Returns every file in ResolvedFiles+ResolvedDependencyFiles+RelatedFiles+SatelliteFiles+ScatterFiles+SatelliteAssemblyFiles that have CopyLocal flags set to 'true'.

DependsOnNETStandard

Whether the assembly or any of its primary references depends on netstandard

DependsOnSystemRuntime

Whether the assembly or any of its primary references depends on system.runtime. (Aka needs Facade references to resolve duplicate types)

DoNotCopyLocalIfInGac

[default=false] Enables legacy mode for CopyLocal determination. If true, referenced assemblies will not be copied locally if they are found in the GAC. If false, assemblies will be copied locally unless they were found only in the GAC.

FailIfNotIncremental
FilesWritten

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

The names of all files written to disk.

FindDependencies

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

If set, then dependencies will be found. Otherwise, only Primary references will be resolved.

Default is true.

FindDependenciesOfExternallyResolvedReferences

Force dependencies to be walked even when a reference is marked with ExternallyResolved=true metadata.

FindRelatedFiles

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

If set, then related files (.pdbs and .xmls) will be found.

Default is true.

FindSatellites

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

If set, then satellites will be found.

Default is true.

FindSerializationAssemblies

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

If set, then serialization assemblies will be found.

Default is true.

FullFrameworkAssemblyTables

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

A list of XML files that contain the full framework for the profile.

Normally nothing is passed in here, this is for the cases where the location of the xml file for the full framework is not under a RedistList folder.

Format of the file is like:

<FileList Redist="MatchingRedistListName"><File AssemblyName="System" Version="2.0.0.0" PublicKeyToken="b77a5c561934e089" Culture="neutral" ProcessorArchitecture="MSIL" FileVersion="2.0.40824.0" InGAC="true"></File>
    etc.</FileList>

Items in this list must specify the "FrameworkDirectory" metadata to associate an redist list with a particular framework directory. If the association is not made an error will be logged. The reason is, The logic in rar assumes if a FrameworkDirectory is not set it will use the target framework directory.

FullFrameworkFolders

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

Set of folders which containd a RedistList directory which represent the full framework for a given client profile. An example would be %programfiles%\reference assemblies\microsoft\framework\v4.0

FullTargetFrameworkSubsetNames

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

Provide a set of names which if seen in the TargetFrameworkSubset list will cause the ignoring of TargetFrameworkSubsets.

Full, Complete

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)
IgnoreDefaultInstalledAssemblySubsetTables

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

[default=false] Boolean property to control whether or not the task should look for and use additional installed assembly subset tables (a.k.a Subset Lists) found in the SubsetList directory underneath the provided TargetFrameworkDirectories.

IgnoreDefaultInstalledAssemblyTables

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

[default=false] Boolean property to control whether or not the task should look for and use additional installed assembly tables (a.k.a Redist Lists) found in the RedistList directory underneath the provided TargetFrameworkDirectories.

If the primary reference is a framework assembly ignore its version information and actually resolve the framework assembly from the currently targeted framework.

InstalledAssemblySubsetTables

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

A list of XML files that contain assemblies that are expected to be in the target subset

Format of the file is like:

<FileList Redist="ClientSubset"><File AssemblyName="System" Version="2.0.0.0" PublicKeyToken="b77a5c561934e089" Culture="neutral" ProcessorArchitecture="MSIL" FileVersion="2.0.40824.0" InGAC="true"></File>
    etc.</FileList>

Items in this list may optionally specify the "FrameworkDirectory" metadata to associate an InstalledAssemblySubsetTable with a particular framework directory. If there is only a single TargetFrameworkDirectories element, then any items in this list missing the "FrameworkDirectory" metadata will be treated as though this metadata is set to the lone (unique) value passed to TargetFrameworkDirectories.

InstalledAssemblyTables

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

A list of XML files that contain assemblies that are expected to be installed on the target machine.

Format of the file is like:

<FileList Redist="Microsoft-Windows-CLRCoreComp"><File AssemblyName="System" Version="2.0.0.0" PublicKeyToken="b77a5c561934e089" Culture="neutral" ProcessorArchitecture="MSIL" FileVersion="2.0.40824.0" InGAC="true"></File>
    etc.</FileList>

When present, assemblies from this list will be candidates to automatically "unify" from prior versions up to the version listed in the XML. Also, assemblies with InGAC='true' will be considered prerequisites and will be CopyLocal='false' unless explicitly overridden. Items in this list may optionally specify the "FrameworkDirectory" metadata to associate an InstalledAssemblyTable with a particular framework directory. However, this setting will be ignored unless the Redist name begins with "Microsoft-Windows-CLRCoreComp". If there is only a single TargetFrameworkDirectories element, then any items in this list missing the "FrameworkDirectory" metadata will be treated as though this metadata is set to the lone (unique) value passed to TargetFrameworkDirectories.

LatestTargetFrameworkDirectories
