Microsoft.Build.Evaluation Namespace

Contains types that the MSBuild object model uses to evaluate projects. Each project is associated with one or more project roots. For information, see MSBuild.

Classes

GlobResult	Data class representing a result from GetAllGlobs() and its overloads. This represents all globs found in an item include together with the item element it came from, the excludes that were present on that item, and all the Remove item elements pertaining to the Include item element.
MatchOnMetadataConstants
Project	Represents an evaluated project with design time semantics. Always backed by XML; can be built directly, or an instance can be cloned off to add virtual items/properties and build. Edits to this project always update the backing XML.
ProjectChangedEventArgs	Event arguments for the ProjectChanged event.
ProjectCollection	This class encapsulates a set of related projects, their toolsets, a default set of global properties, and the loggers that should be used to build them. A global version of this class acts as the default ProjectCollection. Multiple ProjectCollections can exist within an appdomain. However, these must not build concurrently.
ProjectCollection.ProjectAddedToProjectCollectionEventArgs	Event to provide information about what project just got added to the project collection.
ProjectCollectionChangedEventArgs	Event arguments for the ProjectCollectionChanged event.
ProjectItem	An evaluated design-time item
ProjectItemDefinition	An evaluated item definition for a particular item-type.
ProjectMetadata	An evaluated design-time metadatum. Parented either by a ProjectItemDefinition or a ProjectItem.
ProjectProperty	An evaluated design-time property
ProjectXmlChangedEventArgs	Event arguments for the ProjectXmlChanged event.
ProvenanceResult	Data class representing a result from GetItemProvenance(String) and its overloads.
SubToolset	Aggregation of a set of properties that correspond to a particular sub-toolset.
Toolset	Aggregation of a toolset version (eg. "2.0"), tools path, and optional set of associated properties. Toolset is immutable.

Structs

ResolvedImport

Encapsulates an import relationship in an evaluated project between a ProjectImportElement and the ProjectRootElement of the imported project.

Enums

MatchOnMetadataOptions
NewProjectFileOptions	Flags to control options when creating a new, in memory, project.
Operation	Enum that specifies how an item element references an item.
ProjectCollectionChangedState	Properties or other mutable state associated with a ProjectCollection.
ProjectLoadSettings	Flags for controlling the project load.
Provenance	Bit flag enum that specifies how a string representing an item matched against an itemspec.
ToolsetDefinitionLocations	Flags for controlling the toolset initialization.

Delegates

ProjectCollection.ProjectAddedEventHandler

Handler to receive which project got added to the project collection.
