UnregisterAssembly Class

Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.Build.Tasks

Assembly:

Microsoft.Build.Tasks.Core.dll

Package:

Microsoft.Build.Tasks.Core v17.11.4

Source:

UnregisterAssembly.cs

Registers a managed assembly for COM interop (equivalent of regasm.exe functionality, but this code doesn't actually call the exe).

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

Remarks

Framework64/<version>/UnRegisterAssemblyTask cannot resolve a library of COM objects registered as 32-bit components. Framework/<version>/UnRegisterAssemblyTask cannot resolve a library of COM objects registered as 64-bit components.

For example, if you register a library of COM objects called ClassLibrary1 as 32-bit components on a 64-bit machine, run Visual Studio, and change the target to x64, the build fails with the following error:

ClassLibrary1.dll is not a valid assembly

Constructors

UnregisterAssembly()

This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Initializes a new instance of the UnregisterAssembly class.

Properties

Assemblies	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the assemblies to be unregistered.
AssemblyListFile	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. The cache file for Register/UnregisterAssembly. Necessary for UnregisterAssembly to do the proper clean up.
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)
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)
TypeLibFiles	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets a Boolean value that specifies whether to unregister the specified type library from the specified assembly.
