Problem with CreateProperty
If I create a property like this:<
CreateProperty "Value=" something">
<Output TaskParameter="Value" PropertyName="MyProperty"/>
</CreateProperty>MyProperty will get "something" instead of " something", the space is gone.
Is this expected or a bug?

Yes you are right. The property strings are getting trimmed today in this scenario. Are you blocked on a real need to have whitespace at the beginning or the end of the string?
If you want spaces at the beginning or the end, you can use %20 in the attribute value to escape it. Granted it's not ideal, but I'll find out more as to whether this was intended behavior or actually a bug.
Thanks.

Well, I can workaround not having the need for the space at start of the string, or using %20, but I just wasn't expecting it and had a bug because of it

Understandable - sorry about not working as expected in this case.
I'll find out more as to whether there was any history on this particular issue - otherwise we'll track it as a bug for our next release.
Thanks.
