CHANGED: Added handling of special symbols in MSBuild core

changelog

from vssolutionbuildevent.

Original comment by Denis Kuzmin (Bitbucket: 3F, GitHub: 3F):

implemented with 4e6b15e and should be included in v0.10

now, if you have a multiline value in your variable projectRev, for example:

#!java

#[var cs = Version is a %ver% !] 

#[var projectRev = v1.2
debug 
rev321]

you should strip this with Replace on any compatible sequence, e.g.

#!java


#[var projectRev = $(projectRev.Replace("\r\n", " :: "))]
#[var cs = $(cs.Replace("%ver%", "#[var projectRev]"))]

or as variant:

#!java

#[var cs = $(cs.Replace("%ver%", $(projectRev.Replace("\r\n", " :: "))))]

and similar...

note:

• use the escaping \r \n if need this
• use the \x00 - \xFF for other char by code

as result in variable cs we have:

#!java

Version is a v1.2 :: debug  :: rev321 !

Original comment by Denis Kuzmin (Bitbucket: 3F, GitHub: 3F):

ok, I checked variant for MSBuild

#!java

#[var cs = line1
line2]

#[var cs = $(cs.Replace("\r\n", ""))]

or with different combination CR/LF

#!java

#[var cs = $(cs.Replace("\r", "").Replace("\n", ""))]

#!java


result: line1line2

so, we can use the Replace() function of the MSBuild core for any result from SBE-Scripts core

but, v0.9 is not contains handler of symbols \r\n for the MSBuild properties

this should be implemented is coming soon, and I think to include this in planned v0.10

you can watch this ticket about progress of this implementation..

if it's you - Issue #26 well...

#!java

 $(cs.Replace(...

this for MSBuild core, so yes the newline symbols is not allowed and will be fail

I think need an additional component for work with special symbols... need to think

stay in touch!
