Project.SetProperty Method
Sets or adds a property with the given name and value to the project. Overwrites the value of a property with the same name if it did not originate in an imported file.
Assembly: Microsoft.Build (in Microsoft.Build.dll)
Parameters
- name
- Type: System.String
The name of the property to set.
- unevaluatedValue
- Type: System.String
The new unevaluated value of the property.
If there is no property with the given name, updates the last existing property with the given name that has no condition on itself or its property group, unless it originated in an imported file.
Otherwise, adds a new property in the first property group without a condition, creating a property group if necessary after the last existing property group, else at the start of the project.
Evaluation takes place on a best-effort basis. Properties that are defined in the project source following the new property may be used for evaluation. Only this property is evaluated. Other properties that might depend on it are not affected.
