In addition to the parameters listed above, this task inherits parameters from the xref:Microsoft.Build.Tasks.TaskExtension class, which itself inherits from the xref:Microsoft.Build.Utilities.Task class. For a list of these additional parameters and their descriptions, see TaskExtension base class.
