Download Msbuild 4.0

Hi Guys, My project is developped by vs2015. Unfortunately I have to support winXp, so my target framework version is 4.0 in vs. This is my setting in teamcity MSBuild version: Microsoft build too. The location of the MSBuild.exe executable. String: No: MSBuild with.NET Framework, xbuild on Unix with Mono. 1.0: logger: The full path to the assembly containing the custom logger to use. Contrary to the usual MSBuild command line, arguments MUST NOT be passed to the logger by appending them after the logger name separated by a semicolon. The Visual Basic and C# compilers are also included in this download. (In earlier versions, these tools were included in the stand-alone.NET Framework.) System Requirements Supported Operating System Windows 7 Service Pack 1, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2. Download Visual Studio Community, Professional, and Enterprise. Try Visual Studio IDE, Code or Mac for free today. Manual Download Copy and Paste the following command to install this package using PowerShellGet More Info Install-Module -Name Invoke-MsBuild -RequiredVersion 2.4.0. For example, the MSBuild 4.0 Toolset defines SDK40ToolsPath to point to the 7.0A SDK, but the MSBuild 4.011.0 Toolset defines the same property to point to the 8.0A SDK. If VisualStudioVersion is unset, SDK40ToolsPath would point to 7.0A, but if VisualStudioVersion is set to 11.0.

Install Msbuild

I need to package results of the build to the ZIP file. Options:

  1. Zip task from MSBuild Community Tasks Project
  2. 7z.exe or something else in source control
  3. Custom task
  4. Code task

And considerations:

  1. The MSBuild Community Tasks Zip task requires tasks lib to be included before build. This actually means that you cannot download it from build script. They have Nuget Package, but if you use package restore you are out of lack.

  2. Second option is to use one of the zip compression tools. Main problem that you need this exe. So if you do not want it in your source control, you need to download it. You can try chocolatey, but I decided that this is too complicated for me.

  3. Custom task. I think this is joke.

  4. Code task. With UsingTask element you can just code your task with C# directly in MsBuild file. In most case this sounds like an overkill, but anyway I will go with this option.

Zip Task Implementation

Msbuild 2.0

You need something to make a zip. You can actually use any library , but I will use one that is shipped with .NET 4.5.

Important, you should have .NET 4.5 installed to make this work.
