----------------------------------
Summary: [windows8] Use the latest version of MSBuild Tools
installed to build the app
Key: CB-6397
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6397
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Windows 8
Affects Versions: 3.4.0
Environment: Windows8, VS2012, VS2013
Reporter: Sergey Grebnov
Assignee: Sergey Grebnov
Fix For: 3.5.0
You can manually update Windows8 template to Windows8.1 to start using Cordova
to build Windows8.1 apps. Such apps requires MSBuild Tools v12 to successfully
build the code (Visual Studio 2013 or later).
We recently added logic to detect MSBuild version required by looking into the
project file and get MSBuild location from registry (CB-6083 [windows8] Use
registry to read msbuild tools path).
Unfortunately, in some case it is not possible (or super hard) to detect
correct version of MSBuild required by parsing project file. The easiest and
most reliable approach is to use the latest version of MSBuild tools installed
on the machine.
