MSBuild目标-解决方案构建/重建之后

Question

What way should I go when I want to build some projects and afterwards I want to do some extra stuff? Some kind of finalizing the build.

I need a target that executes just after the last project was build (Rebuild All Succeeded). In that target, some Files including a deployment guide (.docx), some SQL scripts and PowerShell are moved / copied into a predefined directory hierarchy. I already build WSPs and other files that get copied to their destination, but not those "global files".

I thought of the way that after the last project in the build order was build, I can trigger that target, but what if in the future the build order will change?

Is there a "AfterRebuildAll" Target or some best practise?

Answer 1

If you're building with TFS, there are customizable TFS build targets .

If you're building with msbuild.exe from the CLI, you can look into placing an "after.solutionfile.sln.targets" msbuild project file in the same folder as your solution that contains your custom targets .
