c# precompiler

[Carlos De Matos]

Hello all,
Has anyone written a project/code/document on a possible implementation for
a c# precompiler?

I want to build a precompiler that will modify attributed code, then submit
the on-the-fly modified code to the actual c# compiler.

I want to integrate this into the MSBuild process.

If you have done something similar or have some ideas, please let me know.

Isn't that hard to debug? Wouldn't it be better to have a code
generator you could call from an msbuild task, which generates code in
a partial class file ?

Hi Carlos,

If you decide to go the route of creating a custom task, you may find
the following link helpful. I am building custom tasks, and ran across
these during my research.

I also have compiled a list of MSBuild resources you might find
helpful:
