MSBuildLocator

An API to locate MSBuild assemblies from an installed Visual Studio location. Use this to ensure that calling the MSBuild API will use the same toolset that a build from Visual Studio or msbuild.exe would.

About

MSBuild offers a .NET API surface that allows you to evaluate and build MSBuild projects from an application. MSBuild is available as a set of NuGet packages that can provide the implementation of the MSBuild programming language to your application. But it's generally not enough to be able to load some MSBuild project: you want your application to be able to load the .csproj, .vbproj, .fsproj, .sqlproj, .ccproj and other project types that you can build in Visual Studio (or Visual Studio Build Tools) or with the .NET SDK. To do that, you need more than just MSBuild's assemblies--you must also have access to all of the SDKs and build logic that are imported into those projects.
