[msbuild] Add support to the ResolveNativeReferences task to execute remotely. Fixes #19027. #19047
Conversation
…remotely. Fixes xamarin#19027. It looks like ResolveNativeReferences was always intended to execute remotely from Windows (when used in the _ExpandNativeReferences target, the task is given a session id, and only called when IsMacEnabled=true), but the task itself never implemented the code to execute remotely. Weirdly enough this was never an issue, because the task never did something that had to be done on a Mac. That is, until recently, when the task learned to decompress zip files, by executing /usr/bin/unzip. Obviously this doesn't work on Windows, so fix it by adding support for the task to execute remotely. Fixes xamarin#19027.

I see there are two output properties in this class. Returning false means none of those output properties will be considered for creating the files on Windows.
I’m just trying to understand why we would only want to create output files when there are no frameworks. Is it okay to discard the TouchedFiles output when there are frameworks?
On the other hand, our outputs are always empty files, we never copy a real output file.

I think I can change this to never create an output file, that would actually make more sense.
