how to add stop msbuild from building the project visual studio build option

I want to stop msbuild default "build" target to stop building my code instead, i want to define my custom target which will build my application. how to achieve this?

Thanks,

Solution

  • Just open the csproj file of your project.

    And add these at the bottom of the file:

    <Target Name="Build">

//write your custom build function

</Target>

    It will overwrite the default build and use yours.
