Where is ""MSBuildXXXX.dll""? I swear it used to be here!


Starting with the Beta 1 release, the following assemblies and files have been renamed:

Old name (Pre-Beta 1) New name (Beta 1 and beyond)
""MSBuildEngine.dll"" Microsoft.Build.Engine.dll
""MSBuildFramework.dll"" Microsoft.Build.Framework.dll
""MSBuildUtilities.dll"" Microsoft.Build.Utilities.dll
""MSBuildTasks.dll"" Microsoft.Build.Tasks.dll
""MSBuildConversion.dll"" Microsoft.Build.Conversion.dll
""MSBuildVJSharpTasks.dll"" ""Microsoft.Build.VisualJSharp.dll""
""MSBuildNonShippingTasks.dll"" ""Microsoft.Build.NonShippingTasks.dll""
""Microsoft.BuildTasks"" Microsoft.Common.Tasks
""Microsoft.BuildPolicy"" (obsolete)

This rename was done to conform with .NET assembly naming guidelines.
