IBuildEngine4 Interface

  • Article

This interface extends IBuildEngine to provide a mechanism allowing tasks to share data between task invocations.

MSBuild is now included in Visual Studio instead of the .NET Framework. You can use MSBuild 12.0 side-by-side with versions previously deployed with the .NET Framework.For more information, see What's New in MSBuild 12.0.
