Question

I am creating a Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2008 build agent for a project of mine. For the working directory, we don’t use the default $(Temp)\$(BuildDefinitionPath). Instead of Temp, we use a specific folder. That folder path includes the Team Project’s name. Here comes my question. Is there a variable replacement for the Team Project’s name.

Example Working directory:
D:\Builds\BuildAgents\AdventureWorld\$(BuildDefinitionPath)

I want to replace AdventureWorld with a variable.

Answer 1

Use $(MSBuildProjectName):

The file name of the project file without the file name extension, for example, MyApp.
