BuildPropertyGroup.GetEnumerator Method
Gets an enumerator that iterates through the BuildPropertyGroup.
MSBuild is now included in Visual Studio instead of the .NET Framework. You can use MSBuild 12.0 side-by-side with versions previously deployed with the .NET Framework.For more information, see What's New in MSBuild 12.0.
Namespace: Microsoft.Build.BuildEngine
Assembly: Microsoft.Build.Engine (in Microsoft.Build.Engine.dll)

Remarks
This method allows the caller to use the foreach statement of the C# language (for each in Visual Basic) to iterate through the individual BuildProperty objects in the BuildPropertyGroup.
Examples
The following example creates a Project object and uses the BuildItem, BuildPropertyBuildItemGroup, and BuildPropertyGroup classes to list all the items and properties in the project.
Module Module1
'You need to add references to Microsoft.Build.BuildEngine and
'Microsoft.Build.Framework
Sub Main()
'Set this to point to the location where the 2.0 clr/tools are installed
Engine.GlobalEngine.BinPath = "C:\windows\microsoft.net\framework\v2.0.xxxxx"
'Create a new empty project
Dim project As New Project()
'Load a project
project.Load("c:\temp\validate.proj")
'Output a header
Console.WriteLine("Project Properties")
Console.WriteLine("----------------------------------")
'Iterate through the various property groups and subsequently
'through the various properties
For Each propertyGroup As BuildPropertyGroup In project.PropertyGroups
For Each prop As BuildProperty In propertyGroup
Console.WriteLine("{0}:{1}", prop.Name, prop.Value)
Next
Next
Console.WriteLine()
Console.WriteLine("Project Items")
Console.WriteLine("----------------------------------")
'Iterate through the various itemgroups
'and subsequently through the items
For Each itemGroup As BuildItemGroup In project.ItemGroups
For Each item As BuildItem In itemGroup
