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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
