Question

I want to build an application (app A) that builds another application (app B) and that edits the .proj file for compiling (.proj of app B).
I am familiar with MSbuild but I wonder if there is a way of using it inside my code to compile the app. I want the customer to customize the build settings and to get the latest libraries he wants from a a team foundation server. I really need a good place to start with this.

Answer 1

The Microsoft.Build namespaces contain types that provide programmatic access to, and control of, the MSBuild engine.
