The policy used for assembly unification. |
| Bag |
This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets the collection of parameters used by the derived task class. (Inherited from ToolTaskExtension) |
| 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 |

| canBeIncremental |
ToolTask is not incremental by default. When a derived class overrides SkipTaskExecution, then Question feature can take into effect. (Inherited from ToolTask) |
| DisabledWarnings |
Warning codes to disable |
| EchoOff |
When set to true, it passes /Q to the cmd.exe command line such that the command line does not get echo-ed on stdout (Inherited from ToolTask) |
| EnvironmentOverride |
Obsolete.
Gets the Path override value. (Inherited from ToolTask) |
| EnvironmentVariables |
Array of equals-separated pairs of environment variables that should be passed to the spawned executable, in addition to (or selectively overriding) the regular environment block. (Inherited from ToolTask) |
| ExitCode |

This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Whether this ToolTaskExtension has logged any errors (Inherited from ToolTaskExtension) |
| 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) |

Methods
| AddCommandLineCommands(CommandLineBuilderExtension) |
Fills the provided CommandLineBuilderExtension with all the command line options used when executing this tool. |
| AddCommandLineCommands(CommandLineBuilderExtension) |
This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Fills the provided CommandLineBuilderExtension with those switches and other information that can't go into a response file and must go directly onto the command line. (Inherited from ToolTaskExtension) |
| AddResponseFileCommands(CommandLineBuilderExtension) | |
| AddResponseFileCommands(CommandLineBuilderExtension) |
This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Fills the provided CommandLineBuilderExtension with those switches and other information that can go into a response file. (Inherited from ToolTaskExtension) |
| AdjustCommandsForOperatingSystem(String) |
Replace backslashes with OS-specific path separators, except when likely that the backslash is intentional. (Inherited from ToolTask) |
| CallHostObjectToExecute() |
We expect the tasks to override this method, if they support host objects. The implementation should call into the host object to perform the real work of the task. For example, for compiler tasks like Csc and Vbc, this method would call Compile() on the host object. (Inherited from ToolTask) |
| Cancel() |
Cancels the process executing the task by asking it to close nicely, then after a short period, forcing termination. (Inherited from ToolTask) |
| DeleteTempFile(String) |
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 method invokes the tool with the given parameters. (Inherited from ToolTask) |
| Execute() |
Task entry point. (Inherited from TaskRequiresFramework) |
