Building a specific version of a solution in a TFS Team Build project

I have a TFS 2008 TeamBuild set up and I'm building several solutions:

• Solution A
• Solution B
• Solution C

I would like to build solutions A and B with the latest version from the source control, but for the solution C, I would like to build a specific version defined by the TFS label.

Now, I know about the:

• /p:GetVersion:LmyLabel argument for the TeamBuild
• <PropertyGroup><GetVersion>LmyLabel</GetVersion><PropertyGroup> element in the .proj file

But that applies to the entire build process and all solutions.

I need it just for one of my solutions, ideally in the SolutionToBuild element.

Something like this:

<SolutionToBuild clude="$(BuildProjectFolderPath)/Soluti开发者_如何学运维onA.sln">
    <Targets></Targets>
    <Properties></Properties>
</SolutionToBuild>
<SolutionToBuild clude="$(BuildProjectFolderPath)/SolutionB.sln">
    <Targets></Targets>
    <Properties></Properties>
</SolutionToBuild>
<SolutionToBuild clude="$(BuildProjectFolderPath)/SolutionC.sln">
    <Targets></Targets>
    <Properties>GetVersion=LmyLabel</Properties>
</SolutionToBuild>

Any ideas?

When you are using TFS 2010, you can build from a shelveset. This means that the system first gets all the latest version of the files and then unshelves the shelveset.

However not ideal, you could play with this by creating a workspace based on the version you want to build for solution C. Then create shelveset that contains the changed files for solution A and B.

Another option would be to have 3 different build definitions....
