如何从 MSBUILD 覆盖 .NET 中引用的 CopyLocal(私有)设置

问题描述

我已经为此苦苦挣扎了几天，经过大量搜索后，我找不到我应该走的路.

I have been wrestling with this for a few days and after tons of searching I can't find the path I should be on.

我想要做的是设置一个 MSBUILD 项目，它将构建我们的整个 .NET 应用程序(8 个解决方案的常量，并且可能有 250 个项目在它们之间拆分)，其中一些设置从单个项目文件中覆盖以进行自己的调试版本.

What I want to do is set up an MSBUILD project that will build our entire .NET application (constst of 8 solutions, and maybe 250 projects split up between them) with a number of settings overridden from the individual project files to make a debug build for myself.

具体来说，我想构建我们的发布配置，关闭优化并生成完整的调试信息/pdb.另外，为了减少我们目前超长的构建时间，我希望每个项目的每个引用都复制本地"(或实际项目文件 xml 中的私有)为 false.

Specifically I want to build our release configuration with optimizations off and full debug info / pdbs generated. Also, in order to reduce our currently ultra-long build time I want "copy local" (or private in the actual proj file xml) false for every reference of every project.

第一件事很简单，我可以很容易地覆盖项目级别的属性(您甚至可以使用/p 从 MSBuild 命令行执行此操作)，但我不知道如何覆盖一个参考.我已经尝试了一些我在 StackOverflow 和网络上看到的东西，但还没有一个解决方案.

The first things were fairly easy, I can override a project level property fairly easily (you can even do this from the MSBuild command line using /p), but what I can't figure out is how to override a property on a reference. I have tried several things I saw here on StackOverflow and around the web, but nothing is a solution yet.

我可以通过更改 Microsoft.Common.targets 来做我想做的事，注释掉 _CopyFilesMarkedCopyLocal 目标中的代码会完全跳过这些文件的复制.但我不想改变我的全局配置并在所有情况下都这样做.我创建了自己的备用目标文件——如果我改变一个单独的项目文件以指向它，它就可以工作——但我不知道如何指定它在顶层使用(我的 .proj 文件只是构建所有 8 个解决方案).如果我能以某种方式仅覆盖顶层的 _CopyFilesMarkedCopyLocal 目标，那就太好了，这样如果 MS 更改了默认目标文件，我的构建就不会搞砸，但我也不知道如何使它工作.

I can do what I want by altering Microsoft.Common.targets, commenting out the code in the _CopyFilesMarkedCopyLocal target completely skips the copying of these files. But I don't want to alter my global configuration and do this in all circumstances. I created my own alternate targets file -- which works if I alter an individual project file to point to it -- but I can't figure out how to specify this to be used at the top level (my .proj file that just builds all 8 solutions). It would be great if I could somehow override just the _CopyFilesMarkedCopyLocal target at the top level so that if MS changes the default targets file my build isn't screwed up, but I can't figure out how to make this work either.

如果有一种方法可以覆盖参考级别属性，就像您可以项目级别属性一样，而不必重写/覆盖构建目标的东西，那么最好的可能就是 - 但我没有发现任何信息表明这是可能的.

The best possible thing would be if there was a way to just override reference level properties like you can project level properties, without having to rewrite/override the build targets stuff -- but I have found no information indicating this is possible.

提前感谢您对此提供的任何帮助.

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

附言我实际上不可能浏览所有项目文件并更改它们；我需要一个解决方案，让现有代码保持原样.

P.S. It is not possible for me to actually just go through all the projects files and change them; I need a solution that leaves the existing code in place as is.

推荐答案

试试这个:

将 CustomAfterMicrosoftCommonTargets 设置为 C:foofilter.targets (或任何您命名的文件) 并将 filter.targets 设置为:

Set the CustomAfterMicrosoftCommonTargets to C:foofilter.targets (or whatever you name the file) and have filter.targets to be:

<Project xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
    <ItemDefinitionGroup>
      <Reference>
        <Private>False</Private>
      </Reference>
    </ItemDefinitionGroup>
</Project>
