February 10, 2010 in Articles, News, Reference

Web project package and deployment targets files are written with extensibility in mind.  User can easily extend a property to include more functionalities in their package by using msbuild targets and properties.  If we check the Microsoft.Web.Publishing.targets file under “%Program Files%\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v10.0\Web\”, we can see the following, which means if file $(WebPublishPipelineProjectName).wpp.targets exists in the project directory, we’ll import it automatically when build package or publish. <!– *************************************************************** –> <!– To allow the Team build to have custom setting for the Web Application project without change the project file –> <!– by default…(read more)
