Change AssemblyName of csproj file in Azure Pipeline via powershell

trying to change the AssemblyName of an .Net project file inside Azure Pipeline. Reason is to have a special name of the process. Would like to use PowerShell for this. I tried this:

 - task: PowerShell@2
  inputs:
    targetType: 'inline'
    script: |
      [xml]$xml =(gc "src/WaWiXPO/WaWiXPO.csproj")
      Write-Host $xml.Project.PropertyGroup[0].AssemblyName
      $xml.Project.PropertyGroup[0].AssemblyName = "WaWiDEV"
      $xml.Save("WaWiXPO.csproj")

Locally it is working fine, but in the pipeline, it does no change. No error message. Any ideas?

From the looks of it, you need to pass the full path to the call to Save:

- task: PowerShell@2
  inputs:
    targetType: 'inline'
    script: |
      $path = "src/WaWiXPO/WaWiXPO.csproj"
      [xml]$xml =(gc $path)
      Write-Host $xml.Project.PropertyGroup[0].AssemblyName
      $xml.Project.PropertyGroup[0].AssemblyName = "WaWiDEV"
      $xml.Save($path)
