Is there an rc file for msbuild?

Question

Is there a user config file for msbuild, like a ~/.msbuildrc?

(Some of the options, like CPU count and verbosity, it seems silly to set per-project -- they're things that vary by user or computer, not by project.)

Answer 1

There's the Custom.Before.Microsoft.Common.Tasks mechanism as described here and in less depth here and a forum thread here

(There are also .rsp files, but those are per-project)
