Issue with using MSBuild to build and copy all outputs to a common folder -


we trying write msbuild script build solution , copy on compiled binaries , dependencies on specific output folder. while build script have build , copy on binaries common folder, not getting dependencies copied. has way have used msbuild task build solution , accepting targetoutputs of task itemgroup , iterating on item group copy compiled dlls , exes on common folder. not including dependency dlls gets placed individual bin folder of each project.

<project toolsversion="4.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003"> <propertygroup>     <parentsolutionfile /> </propertygroup> <itemgroup>     <assemblies include="*.dll, *.exe" /> </itemgroup> <target name="buildall">     <combinepath basepath="$(msbuildprojectdirectory)" paths="source\solutions\xxx.sln">         <output taskparameter="combinedpaths" propertyname="parentsolutionfile" />     </combinepath>     <message text="$(parentsolutionfile)" />     <msbuild projects="$(parentsolutionfile)">         <output taskparameter="targetoutputs" itemname="assemblies" />     </msbuild>     <message text="%(assemblies.identity)" />     <copy sourcefiles="%(assemblies.identity)" destinationfolder="$(msbuildprojectdirectory)\binary" overwritereadonlyfiles="true" skipunchangedfiles="true" /> </target> 

what preferred way copy on binaries along necessary dependencies common output folder?

does not overriding outputpath trick alone?

<msbuild projects="$(parentsolutionfile)" properties="outputpath=$(msbuildprojectdirectory)\binary">   <output taskparameter="targetoutputs" itemname="assemblies" /> </msbuild> 

and leave out copy task alltogether?
