使用 Visual Studio 构建任务在 azure devops 中设置工作目录

Question

I'm trying to build a project which requires to set the working directory to a path.

On my local machine I could go with Visual Studio 2019 and go to Project - Properties - Debugging - Command Arguments and set it to whatever I want. The problem is that I don't know how to do with Visual Studio build task .

If I do not set this settings, it produces an executable that doesn't launch.

here is my build pipeline: https://dev.azure.com/nathanvalletmarseille/armorpaint/_build?definitionId=5&_a=summary

It's not able to directly set this with build-in visual studio build task.

However, you could do this through a script before you run the build task:

- script: # script path or inline
  workingDirectory: #
  displayName: #
  failOnStderr: #
  env:  # mapping of environment variables to add
