RE: All Targets Not Being Called (nested Targets not being executed)

The problem is that MSBuild will only execute a specific target once so the 
SetupWebEncryption target will only execute once regardless of how many times 
it is called. You should use item groups and batching to achieve what you want. 
Using an item group something like this:


<ItemGroup>
                <ConfigToEncrypt 
Include="$(WebProject)\_PublishedWebsites\CredentialsManagerService">
                                
<ProviderName>CredentialsManagerService2RSACustomProvider</ProviderName>
                                
<ContainerName>CredentialsManagerService2RSAWebServerKeyContainer</ContainerName>
                </ConfigToEncrypt>
<ConfigToEncrypt Include="$(WebProject)\_PublishedWebsites\FeesServiceHost">
                <ProviderName>FeesServiceHost2RSACustomProvider</ProviderName>
                
<ContainerName>FeesServiceHost2RSAWebServerKeyContainer</ContainerName>
</ConfigToEncrypt>
</ItemGroup>

Okay you asked for it.....Thanks for willing to help me.  I have also included 
the code in the attached text file.  It may be easier to follow in a flat file.

Essentially, what I am trying to do is encrypt web.config files, create key 
container on TFS, and deploy the key container to the destination server (i.e. 
QA, PROD, etc.), and install them on the destination server.  I am using PSEXEC 
to run commands remotely from TFS.  All of this works as expected when the 
first TARGET CALL executes (EncryptCredentialsManagerService).  The problem I 
am having is that the other 5 are not being executed (EncryptFeesServiceHost, 
EncryptInstrumentationHost, EncryptLogbookService, EncryptMessageBrokerService, 
EncryptSecurityTokenServiceHost)

Please let me know if you need clarification while attempting to understand my 
code.

Thanks,
Oscar

Hi Oscar,

It might be easier to answer if we can see the projects, can you share them?

Thanks,

Subject: All Targets Not Being Called (nested Targets not being executed)

I am using a two TARGET files.  On one TARGET file I call a TARGET that is 
inside the second TARGET file.  This second TARGET then calls another TARGET 
that has 6 other TARGET calls, which do a number of different things (in 
addition to calling other nested TARGETS (but inside the same TARGET file)).  
The problem is that, on the TARGET where I call 6 TARGETS, only the first one 
is being executed.  The program doesnt find its way to call the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 
5th, and 6th TARGET.  Is there a limit to the number of nested TARGETS that can 
be called and run?  Nothing is failing.  The problem is the other TARGET calls 
are not running.  Thanks for any help you can provide.
