MSBuild exec task with for

Question

I am trying to run the following commands as part of an MSBuild script:

for /R . %f in (*.targets) do copy /Y \"%f\" \"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\MSBuild\\Microso
         


        

Answer 1

I have just explained in your previous question. In that case you need to add extra % in front of your variables. It is explained in help of FOR command as follows

To use the FOR command in a batch program, specify %%variable instead of %variable.

Answer 2

Had to use %% and not %.
