Msbuild Dll Probing Search Path Custom
How do we make the Msbuild look in the current directory for the dlls before looking into Gac and other places .
Add something like this in your project file:
Soln 1 :
<PropertyGroup>
<AssemblySearchPath>$(AssemblySearchPath);$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)</AssemblySearchPath>
</PropertyGroup>
or
Soln 2 :
Try this works as well .
<ItemGroup>
<CustomTaskInput Include="MyDll.dll"/>
</ItemGroup>
<Target Name="MYTarget" Inputs="@CustomTaskInput" Outputs=”abc.txt”>
<CustomTask />
</Target>
It works now, It probes the current directory for all the dll’s. Very bad that it is documented nowhere. Searched all over Msdn.
