It's no small annoyance to have to know the full file name as well as versioning scheme
of the tasks assembly, which has been a moving target in almost every version of MSBuild.
To the point that I ended up creating a nuget package that gives me a $(CodeTaskAssembly)
that works reliablely across all MSBuild versions.
So, how about just having MSBuild automatically fill the AssemblyFile
for me whenever I
use a TaskFactory="CodeTaskFactory"
attribute in a UsingTask
? Or maybe even more concise
yet, just give me a separate element name for it, like UsingCodeTask
or something and do away
with the attributes altogether :)
May be a superset of what's asked for in #897?
