Microsoft.Build (MSBuild)
The Microsoft Build Engine is a platform for building applications. This engine, also known as MSBuild, provides an XML schema for a project file that controls how the build platform processes and builds software. Visual Studio uses MSBuild, but MSBuild can run without Visual Studio. By invoking msbuild.exe on your project or solution file, you can orchestrate and build products in environments where Visual Studio isn't installed.
For more information on MSBuild, see the MSBuild documentation on docs.microsoft.com.
The changelog has detailed information about changes made in different releases.
Building
Building MSBuild with Visual Studio 2022 on Windows
For the full supported experience, you will need to have Visual Studio 2022 or higher.
To get started on Visual Studio 2022:
- Install Visual Studio 2022. Select the following Workloads:
- .NET desktop development
- .NET Core cross-platform development
- Ensure long path support is enabled at the Windows level.
- Open a
Developer Command Prompt for VS 2022prompt. - Clone the source code:
git clone https://github.com/dotnet/msbuild
- You may have to download Git first.
- Run
.\build.cmdfrom the root of the repo to build the code. This also restores packages needed to open the projects in Visual Studio. - Open
MSBuild.slnorMSBuild.Dev.slnfin Visual Studio 2022.
This newly-built MSBuild will be located at artifacts\bin\bootstrap\net472\MSBuild\Current\Bin\MSBuild.exe. It may not work for all scenarios, including C++ builds.
Building MSBuild in Unix (Mac & Linux)
MSBuild can be run on Unix systems that support .NET Core. Set-up instructions can be viewed on the wiki: Building Testing and Debugging on .Net Core MSBuild
