Creates a using task. Caller must add it to the location of choice in the project. Exactly one of assembly file and assembly name must be provided. Also allows providing optional runtime and architecture specifiers. Null is OK.

public:
 Microsoft::Build::Construction::ProjectUsingTaskElement ^ CreateUsingTaskElement(System::String ^ taskName, System::String ^ assemblyFile, System::String ^ assemblyName, System::String ^ runtime, System::String ^ architecture);

public Microsoft.Build.Construction.ProjectUsingTaskElement CreateUsingTaskElement (string taskName, string assemblyFile, string assemblyName, string runtime, string architecture);

member this.CreateUsingTaskElement : string * string * string * string * string -> Microsoft.Build.Construction.ProjectUsingTaskElement

Public Function CreateUsingTaskElement (taskName As String, assemblyFile As String, assemblyName As String, runtime As String, architecture As String) As ProjectUsingTaskElement

Parameters

taskName

String

The task name.

assemblyFile

String

The file path to the assembly.

assemblyName

String

The name of the assembly to load.

runtime

String

Optional runtime specifier.

architecture

String

Optional architecture specifier.

Returns

ProjectUsingTaskElement

The UsingTask element.

Remarks

Caller must add the UsingTask element to the location of choice in the project. Either the assemblyName or assemblyFile must be null, but not both. Both the runtime and architecture can be null.

CreateUsingTaskElement(String, String, String)
