asp.net - Publish web package adding tasks to copy files -

i have asp.net web package deployment using visual studios 2012 in copy off files before deployment , copy them once deployment completed. these files happen under content\upload. if deploy.cmd files deleted , need copy them off manually , copy them once deployment complete. have tried several examples of similar situations adding tasks project file files added project, such as:

• adding tasks inside targets have created called name="beforepublish" name="afterpublish" in project file.

  <target name="beforepublish">      <message text="beforepublish"/>      <copy/> </target> 

• adding file called projectname.wpp.targets , adding

  <project>     <target name="copymyfiles" beforetargets="beforepublish">          <message text="copymyfiles called"/>          <copy/>     </target> </project> 

neither of these techniques seem called. other ideas? , how should put these tasks?

you can solve using skip rule. try calling command file this:

deploy.cmd -skip:objectname=dirpath,absolutepath=content\\uploads$ 

for more information on skip directive, see web deploy operation settings.
