Detect use of command line when queue a build i Visual Studio

Question

Hi,

If I queue a build in Visual Studio 2008 by right clicking my build definition and choose "Queue new build..." and then add a an argument in the textbox "MSBuild command-line arguments (optional)"

Is it possible to detect in my project (TFSBuild.proj) that this build was started with a "extended" command line?

(I would like to set a few of my own build properties to false if the build is started with a specific changeset (/p:SourceGetVersion=CXXX))

The best way to accomplish your goal would be to specify an additional property you create which signals that a custom command-line has been provided. It would not be easy (not sure if its even possible) to determine without providing the behavior yourself.
