Is there any MSbuild task to check if a string contains another string (similar to string.contains)

Solution 1:

If you use MSBuild 4, you could use Property function

<Import Project="A.proj" 
        Condition="$(BuildDefinition.Contains('Dist Staging to Dev'))"/>

(More info on Property function)

MSBuild4: As Julien said, in MSBUILD 4 is possible to user Property Function.

MSBuild 3.x: In previous versions is possible if you use Tigris MsBuild Tasks

You can use task RegexMatch and use a regular expression
