title: Visual Studio Code build with MsBuild
body: <p>I am trying to use visual studio code to build a C++ project. </p>
  
  <p>I created a task.json for automatic build. </p>
  
  <pre><code>{
      // See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=733558
      // for the documentation about the tasks.json format
      "version": "2.0.0",
      "tasks": [
          {
              "label": "build",
              "type": "shell",
              "command": "msbuild",
              "args": [
                  // Ask msbuild to generate full paths for file names.
                  "/property:GenerateFullPaths=true",
                  "/t:build"
              ],
              "group": "build",
              "presentation": {
                  // Reveal the output only if unrecognized errors occur.
                  "reveal": "silent"
              },
              // Use the standard MS compiler pattern to detect errors, warnings and infos
              "problemMatcher": "$msCompile"
          }
      ]
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It throws the below exception.</p>
  
  <pre><code>MSBUILD : error MSB1003: Specify a project or solution file. The current working directory does not contain a project or solution file.
  The terminal process terminated with exit code: 1
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>As the build task is based on MSBuild. MSBuild required a .vcxproj file for build. </p>
  
  <p>Is there any command that can be generated .vcxproj by nuget or msbuild. </p>
