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

Properties

AssemblyName	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the name of the assembly.
AssemblyVersion	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the assembly version.
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)
Description	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the manifest description text.
EntryPoint	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the managed assembly or ClickOnce manifest reference that is the entry point to the manifest.
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)
InputManifest	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the input manifest.
LauncherBasedDeployment
Log	Gets an instance of a TaskLoggingHelper class containing task logging methods. The taskLoggingHelper is a MarshallByRef object which needs to have MarkAsInactive called if the parent task is making the appdomain and marshaling this object into it. If the appdomain is not unloaded at the end of the task execution and the MarkAsInactive method is not called this will result in a leak of the task instances in the appdomain the task was created within. (Inherited from Task)
MaxTargetPath	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the maximum manifest file name length.
OutputManifest	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the generated manifest.
Platform	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the manifest platform.
TargetCulture	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the manifest target culture code.
TargetFrameworkMoniker	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Gets or sets the target framework moniker.
TargetFrameworkVersion	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. The target .NET Framework version for the project.
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)

Methods

AddAssemblyFromItem(ITaskItem)	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Adds an assembly reference to the manifest, based on the specified item.
AddAssemblyNameFromItem(ITaskItem, AssemblyReferenceType)	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Adds an assembly reference to the manifest, based on the specified item and the assembly reference type.
AddEntryPointFromItem(ITaskItem, AssemblyReferenceType)	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Adds an entry point reference to the manifest, based on the specified item and the assembly reference type.
AddFileFromItem(ITaskItem)	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Adds a file reference to the manifest, based on the specified item.
Execute()	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Executes the GenerateManifestBase task.
FindFileFromItem(ITaskItem)	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Returns the manifest file reference that matches the specified item.
GetObjectType()	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. When implemented in a derived class, returns the type of the manifest.
OnManifestLoaded(Manifest)	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. When implemented in a derived class, sets manifest properties and any dependencies.
OnManifestResolved(Manifest)	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. When implemented in a derived class, sets resolved manifest properties.
ValidateInputs()	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Validates the inputs of the GenerateManifestBase task.
ValidateOutput()	This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Validates the generated manifest.
