MSBuild ExtensionPack Iis6VirtualDirectory create multiple ScriptMaps

Question

I'm using the MSBuild.ExtensionPack.Web.Iis6VirtualDirectory task to create an IIsWebDirectory application as a child of the Default Web Site. I'm trying to create the application with multiple ScriptMaps (all those required for an ASP.NET 2 website). However I can't seem to get the task to create the ScriptMaps correctly. Here's my code:

<MSBuild.ExtensionPack.Web.Iis6VirtualDirectory 
    TaskAction="Create"
    MachineName="$(TargetHostServer)"
    Website="Default Web Site"
    Name="$(IISApplicationName)"
    DirectoryType="IIsWebDirectory"

This just creates a single script map entry with the specification of all the entries on one line. I've tried specifying newlines with \n and XML character entities but can't get it to create the entries correctly.

Answer 1

The answer is to use the pipe (|) character to separate the script maps:
