Only include a file if it exist

[freakalot]

Hi,

I need a way to only include a file if it exists, otherwise I define some variables. I tried to figure out how this could be done but I didn't get any solution now and the documentation doesn't really show up how something like this could be done. Maybe someone else did it before and can help me?

I guess it should look like this:

<?if fileExist?>
  <?include file?>
<?else?>
  <?define ...?>
<?endif?>

my question is: how can I find out if the file exists on the system where the solution is built?

Thanks
Frank

Check out the Exists() keyword in MSBuild Conditions. You'll build up from there.
