How to create custom project file that works with fast-up-to-date (and avoids other problems)?
I am trying to create a project file that performs few custom steps (specifically, it "wraps" existing Angular CLI project).
Here is my best attempt (myproject.csproj
):
<Project ToolsVersion="Current" DefaultTargets="Build">
<PropertyGroup>
<ProjectGuid>{...some-guid...}</ProjectGuid>
<!-- do not include files by default -->
<EnableDefaultItems>false</EnableDefaultItems>
<!-- this removes 'Publish...' menu in VS -->
<OutputType>Library</OutputType>
<!-- output directory name -->
<AngularProject>MyWebFiles</AngularProject>
</PropertyGroup>
<PropertyGroup Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Debug|x64'">
<PlatformTarget>x64</PlatformTarget>
<OutputPath>bin\Debug\</OutputPath>
</PropertyGroup>
<PropertyGroup Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Release|x64'">
<PlatformTarget>x64</PlatformTarget>
<OutputPath>bin\Release\</OutputPath>
</PropertyGroup>
<ItemGroup>
<AngularFile Include="**" Exclude="node_modules\**" />
</ItemGroup>
<Target Name="Build" Inputs="@(AngularFile)" Outputs="$(OutputPath)$(AngularProject)\index.html">
<Exec Command="ng build --no-progress --output-path $(OutputPath)$(AngularProject)\" Condition="'$(Configuration)'=='Debug'" />
<Exec Command="ng build --no-progress --output-path $(OutputPath)$(AngularProject)\ --prod" Condition="'$(Configuration)'=='Release'" />
</Target>
<Target Name="Clean">
<RemoveDir Directories="$(OutputPath)$(AngularProject)\" />
</Target>
<Target Name="Rebuild" DependsOnTargets="Clean;Build" />
</Project>
Everything works fine, I can add this project to VS2019 solution, compile, etc. But it has problems:
- Fast up-to-date check doesn't work. Related logging produces this:
Build started...
1>Project 'myproject' is not up to date. Error (0x8000FFFF).
I've tried specifying fast up-to-date files manually (via UpToDateCheckInput
, etc), but it didn't work (presumably because it relies on additional definitions pulled in when you specify Sdk
attribute of Project
tag).
- VS configuration manager has empty 'Platform' combo box. I'd like to be able to have
x64
in it:
it is rather obvious that PlatformTarget
is getting ignored by VS.
- Opening project in VS results in creation of
obj\x64\Debug\TempPE\
directory (if currentConfiguration
isDebug
). Nothing ever gets generated in it -- would be nice to avoid it being created.
Is it possible to fix these 3 problems? I suspect relates subsystems expect certain values/properties to be generated, I've tried digging in .props/.targets
that come with VS in attempt to locate them, but quickly got lost.
