MSBuild Properties

The following table lists MSBuild properties recognized by the default PostSharp target.

Property	Description
`PostSharpProject`	Location of the PostSharp project (`.psproj`) to be executed immediately after compilation, or the string `None` to specify that PostSharp should not be invoked. If this property is defined, the standard detection mechanism based on references to the `PostSharp.Public.dll` is disabled.
`PostSharpAutoUpdateDisable`	`True` if the auto-update mechanism should be disabled, `False` otherwise.
`PostSharpParameters`	Additional parameters (or properties) passed to the PostSharp project, in format `Name1=Value1;Name2=Value2`.
`PostSharpConfiguration`	Configuration in which the project is being built (typically `Debug` or `Release`). The `Configuration` property in the PostSharp project is set to the value of this MSBuild property. By default, this property is set to the value of the `Configuration` MSBuild property.
`PostSharpPlatform`	Platform for which the project being built (typically `AnyCPU`). The `Platform` property in the PostSharp project is set to the value of this MSBuild property. By default, this property is set to the value of the `Platform` MSBuild property.
`PostSharpIntermediateDirectory`	Directory in which PostSharp stores its intermediate files. By default, this property is set to `$(IntermediateOutputPath)PostSharp`
`PostSharpBackupDirectory`	Directory in which compiled assemblies should be backed up before being transformed by PostSharp, in case that Visual Studio code analysis (FxCop) is enabled. By default, this property is set to `$(IntermediateOutputPath)Before-PostSharp`.
`PostSharpSignAssembly`	`True` if the assembly should be strong-name signed, otherwise `False`. The default value of this property is `$(SignAssembly)` if this property is defined, otherwise `False`. Note that even if the `PostSharpSignAssembly` is set to `False`, the assembly may be signed if it has signing instructions were given as custom attributes.
`PostSharpAttachDebugger`	If this property is set to `True`, PostSharp will break before starting execution, allowing you to attach a debugger to the PostSharp process. The default value is `False`.
`PostSharpUseCommandLine`	`True` if PostSharp should be invoked using the command-line utility, `False` if the MSBuild task should be used. The default value of this property is `True`.
`PostSharpVerbose`	`True` to enable the PostSharp tracing facility, otherwise `False`. You should also run MSBuild with detailed level of verbosity (`/v:detailed`) and enable individual tracing categories in the file `PostSharp-Library.config`.
