The Microsoft Build Engine (MSBuild) is the new build platform for Microsoft and Visual Studio and included in the .NET Framework 2.0.
Additionally to the built-in tasks I found the following:
- MSBee: Compile assemblies targeting .NET Fx 1.1 (MSBuild extension)
MSBuild Extras – Toolkit for .NET 1.1 “MSBee” is an addition to MSBuild that allows developers to build managed applications in Visual Studio 2005 that target .NET 1.1.
- Update Assembly Version Numbers (Task)
The AssemblyInfo task provides a way to manipulate the content of AssemblyInfo files at build time. It works with C#, VB, and J# AssemblyInfo files. The primary use of the AssemblyInfo task is to set assembly version numbers at build time.
This post will be constantly updated as new extensions are available.
