I have been asked this questions more than once…

One of the cases I would like to disable the Binaries folder is: You have your projects target there outputs to custom folders and you have other projects consume the products from these custom folders.

So what is the problem?

What the Team Build is doing is trying to send all the products of the projects to one central folder, the Binaries folder.

In order to disable this behavior all you need to do is the following:

Step 1: Open the Build Template

Step 2: Go to the MSBuild task

Step 3: Open the properties window of the MSBuild task

Step 4: Clear the OutputFolder field

Step 5: Save and check in the file

Step 6: Run the build

That is all you need to do…

Have Fun!!!
