ResolveNonMSBuildProjectOutput

Remarks

This task determines the output files for non-MSBuild project references. We look inside a special property set by the VS IDE for the list of project guids and their associated outputs. While there's nothing that would prevent resolution of MSBuild projects in this task, the IDE only pre-resolves non-MSBuild projects so that we can separate MSBuild project references from non-MSBuild ones and return the list of MSBuild projects as UnresolvedProjectReferences. Then we can use more powerful MSBuild mechanisms to manipulate just the MSBuild project references (i.e. calling into specific targets of references to get the manifest file name) which would not be possible with a mixed list of MSBuild and non-MSBuild references.

Properties

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	Retrieves the IBuildEngine9 version of the build engine interface provided by the host. (Inherited from Task)
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)
Log	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets an instance of a TaskLoggingHelperExtension class containing task logging methods. (Inherited from TaskExtension)
PreresolvedProjectOutputs	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. A special XML string containing resolved project outputs - we need to simply match the projects and return the appropriate paths
ProjectReferences	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. The list of project references (Inherited from ResolveProjectBase)
ResolvedOutputPaths	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. The list of resolved reference paths (preserving the original project reference attributes)
TaskResources	Gets or sets the task's culture-specific resources. Derived classes should register their resources either during construction, or via this property, if they have localized strings. (Inherited from Task)
UnresolvedProjectReferences	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. The list of project reference items that could not be resolved using the pre-resolved list of outputs. Since VS only pre-resolves non-MSBuild projects, this means that project references in this list are in the MSBuild format.

Methods

AddSyntheticProjectReferences(String)	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Helper method for retrieving the extra "project references" passed in the solution blob. These came from dependencies expressed in the solution file itself. (Inherited from ResolveProjectBase)
Execute()	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Main task method
GetProjectElement(ITaskItem)	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Helper method for retrieving the XML element for the given project (Inherited from ResolveProjectBase)
GetProjectItem(ITaskItem)	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Helper method for retrieving whatever was stored in the XML string for the given project (Inherited from ResolveProjectBase)
