Delete temporary file. If the delete fails for some reason (e.g. file locked by anti-virus) then the call will not throw an exception. Instead a warning will be logged, but the build will not fail.

(Inherited from ToolTask)
Execute()

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

Executes the AL task.
