# PropertyTask Members

PropertyTask overview

#### Public Instance Constructors

PropertyTask Constructor | Initializes a new instance of the PropertyTask class.

#### Public Instance Properties

Dynamic | Specifies whether references to other properties should not be expanded when the value of the property is set, but expanded when the property is actually used. By default, properties will be expanded when set.
FailOnError (inherited from Task) | Determines if task failure stops the build, or is just reported. The default is true.
IfDefined (inherited from Task) | If true then the task will be executed; otherwise, skipped. The default is true.
LogPrefix (inherited from Task) | Obsolete. The prefix used when sending messages to the log.
Name (inherited from Task) | The name of the task.
NamespaceManager (inherited from Element) | Gets or sets the XmlNamespaceManager.
Overwrite | Specifies whether the value of a property should be overwritten if the property already exists (unless the property is read-only). The default is true.
Parent (inherited from Element) | Gets or sets the parent of the element.
Project (inherited from Element) | Gets or sets the Project to which this element belongs.
Properties (inherited from Element) | Gets the properties local to this Element and the Project.
PropertyName | The name of the NAnt property to set.
ReadOnly | Specifies whether the property is read-only or not. The default is false.
Threshold (inherited from Task) | Gets or sets the log threshold for this Task. By default the threshold of a task is Debug, causing no messages to be filtered in the task itself.
UnlessDefined (inherited from Task) | Opposite of IfDefined. If false then the task will be executed; otherwise, skipped. The default is false.
Value | The value to assign to the NAnt property.
Verbose (inherited from Task) | Determines whether the task should report detailed build log messages. The default is false.

#### Public Instance Methods

Equals (inherited from Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
Execute (inherited from Task) | Executes the task unless it is skipped.
GetHashCode (inherited from Object) | Serves as a hash function for a particular type.
GetLocation (inherited from Element) | Retrieves the location in the build file where the element is defined.
GetType (inherited from Object) | Gets the Type of the current instance.
Initialize (inherited from Element) | Overloaded. Performs default initialization.
InitializeTaskConfiguration (inherited from Task) | Initializes the configuration of the task using configuration settings retrieved from the NAnt configuration file.
IsLogEnabledFor (inherited from Task) | Determines whether build output is enabled for the given Level.
Log (inherited from Task) | Overloaded. Logs a message with the given priority.
ToString (inherited from Object) | Returns a String that represents the current Object.

#### Protected Instance Properties

CustomXmlProcessing (inherited from Element) | Gets a value indicating whether the element is performing additional processing using the XmlNode that was used to initialize the element.
Location (inherited from Element) | Gets or sets the location in the build file where the element is defined.
XmlNode (inherited from Element) | Gets or sets the XML node of the element.

#### Protected Instance Methods

CopyTo (inherited from Element) | Copies all instance data of the Element to a given Element.
ExecuteTask |
Finalize (inherited from Object) | Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.
GetAttributeConfigurationNode (inherited from Task) | Overloaded. Locates the XML node for the specified attribute in either the configuration section of the extension assembly or the.project.
GetAttributeConfigurationNode (inherited from Element) | Overloaded. Locates the XML node for the specified attribute in the project configuration node.
Initialize (inherited from Task) | Overloaded. Initializes the task.
InitializeElement (inherited from Element) | Obsolete. Derived classes should override to this method to provide extra initialization and validation not covered by the base class.

InitializeXml (inherited from Element) | Initializes all build attributes and child elements.
MemberwiseClone (inherited from Object) | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
