Property for CoreDropBuild target
How can I find the property for the path that <target> CoreDropBuild uses to copy my binaries to?
I want to write this property to a file so I my older automation can read it in and now the path to where our binaries are being copied to.
I tried to look forMicrosoft.TeamFoundation.Build.targetsbut the path toMSBuildExtensionsPath\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v8.0\TeamBuild\ didn't seem to apply to my machine.
Would the property I'm looking for have been in here? Where can I get a copy of this file and where can I get a list of the properties used in the build?
Thanks!

That's not really the case though.
The build is copied into that location and then in a folder with the version number. That is where it's really dropped.
How can I get the property for that?
But more than just the answer, how did you find the answer? I want to know how to find these things myself!
HURRAH!
I found the property! $(BuildNumber)!
Seems obvious enough.
I finally found C:\Program Files\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v8.0\TeamBuild\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.targets
I kept thinking it was in the .net or the DevStudio directories.
I wish the docs would have just said, "This fill will probaby be here at c:\Program Files\MSBuild..." instead of putting the ever clear
MSBuildExtensionsPath in front of the path.
