问题
So, I have VS 2010 installed and am in the process of modifying my MSBuild script for our TeamCity build integration. Everything is working great with one exception.
How can I tell MSBuild that I want to apply the Web.conifg transform files that I've created when I publish the build...
I have the following which produces the compiled web site but, it outputs a Web.config, Web.Debug.config and, Web.Release.config files (All 3) to the compiled output directory. In studio when I perform a publish to file system it will do the transform and only output the Web.config with the appropriate changes...
<Target Name="CompileWeb">
<MSBuild Projects="myproj.csproj" Properties="Configuration=Release;" />
</Target>
<Target Name="PublishWeb" DependsOnTargets="CompileWeb">
<MSBuild Projects="myproj.csproj"
Targets="ResolveReferences;_CopyWebApplication"
Properties="WebProjectOutputDir=$(OutputFolder)$(WebOutputFolder);
OutDir=$(TempOutputFolder)$(WebOutputFolder)\;Configuration=Release;" />
</Target>
Any help would be great..!
I know this can be done by other means but I would like to do this using the new VS 2010 way if possible

I was looking for similar information and didn't quite find it, so I did some digging around in the .targets files that come with Visual Studio 2010 and MSBuild 4.0. I figured that was the best place to look for the MSBuild task that would perform the transformation.
As far as I have been able to tell, the following MSBuild task is used:
<Project ToolsVersion="4.0"
DefaultTargets="Deploy"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
<UsingTask TaskName="TransformXml"
AssemblyFile="$(MSBuildExtensionsPath)\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v10.0\Web\Microsoft.Web.Publishing.Tasks.dll"/>
<PropertyGroup>
<ProjectPath>C:\Path to Project\Here</ProjectPath>
<DeployPath>C:\Path to Deploy\There</DeployPath>
<TransformInputFile>$(ProjectPath)\Web.config</TransformInputFile>
<TransformFile>$(ProjectPath)\Web.$(Configuration).config</TransformFile>
<TransformOutputFile>$(DeployPath)\Web.config</TransformOutputFile>
<StackTraceEnabled>False</StackTraceEnabled>
</PropertyGroup>
<Target Name="Transform">
<TransformXml Source="$(TransformInputFile)"
Transform="$(TransformFile)"
Destination="$(TransformOutputFile)"
Condition="some condition here"
StackTrace="$(StackTraceEnabled)" />
</Target>
</Project>
I have tested the above and can confirm that it works. You might need to tweak the structure a bit to fit with your build script better.

You should be able to accomplish this by using the Package target and specifying the temp directory.
msbuild solution.sln /p:Configuration=Release;DeployOnBuild=true;DeployTarget=Package;_PackageTempDir=..\publish

Alternatively, you try using the XDT Transformation Tool:

I'm using this instead of messing with obscure msbuild targets. Works with app.config not just web.config.
回答4:
It worked for me with the following change
<MSBuild Projects="$(ProjectFile)"
Targets="ResolveReferences;_WPPCopyWebApplication"
Properties="WebProjectOutputDir=TempOutputFolder;OutDir=$(WebProjectOutputDir);Configuration=$(Configuration);" />
From Microsoft.WebApplication.targets file under MsBuild folder
_CopyWebApplication
This target will copy the build outputs along with the
content files into a _PublishedWebsites folder.
This Task is only necessary when $(OutDir) has been redirected
to a folder other than ~\bin such as is the case with Team Build.
The original _CopyWebApplication is now a Legacy, you can still use it by
setting $(UseWPP_CopyWebApplication) to true.
By default, it now change to use _WPPCopyWebApplication target in
Microsoft.Web.Publish.targets.
It allow to leverage the web.config trsnaformation.

I'm no expert with MSBuild, but I was able to use the information from this link to accomplish the same task:
http://www.hanselman.com/blog/ManagingMultipleConfigurationFileEnvironmentsWithPreBuildEvents.aspx
There is a section related to MSBuild near the bottom of the article. Hope this helps.

Another answer to this topic after I've been searching for days before I tackled this issue:
Your publish profile and configuration names should match.
In my case mine didn't. Manually publishing through the publishing profile gave me the result I wanted, because my configuration was set in the publish profile. MSBuild however tries to be intelligent and magically connects the publish profile and configuration based on name. (Adding the /p:Configuration in the command resulted in other strange errors about the outputpath of a referenced project).
Just to be exactly clear in what I mean:
MSBuild statement from command line
msbuild myproject.csproj -t:Clean -t:Rebuild /p:DeployOnBuild=true /p:PublishProfile="Development"
WORKS
- Publish Profile name: Development
- Solution Configuration name: Development
DOES NOT WORK
- Publish Profile name: Development
- Solution Configuration name: Dev
Hope this helps!
