MSBuild task reference

Tasks provide the code that runs during the build process. The tasks in the following list are included with MSBuild. When the C++ workload is installed, additional tasks are available that are used to build C++ projects. For more information, see C++ tasks.

In addition to the parameters listed in the topics in this section, each task also has the following parameters:

Parameter Description
Condition Optional String parameter.

A Boolean expression that the MSBuild engine uses to determine whether this task will be executed. For information about the conditions that are supported by MSBuild, see Conditions.
ContinueOnError Optional parameter. Can contain one of the following values:

- WarnAndContinue or true. When a task fails, subsequent tasks in the Target element and the build continue to execute, and all errors from the task are treated as warnings.
- ErrorAndContinue. When a task fails, subsequent tasks in the Target element and the build continue to execute, and all errors from the task are treated as errors.
- ErrorAndStop or false (default). When a task fails, the remaining tasks in the Target element and the build aren't executed, and the entire Target element and the build is considered to have failed.

Versions of the .NET Framework before 4.5 supported only the true and false values.

For more information, see How to: Ignore errors in tasks.
