How to use $(ProjectName) an other macros in output path and other configurations?
I want to use the project's name in the output path property.
VisualStudio has a macro $(ProjectName).
is saved as <OutputPath>..\bin\Debug\Plugins\%24%28ProjectName%29\</OutputPath> in the project file.
This of course puts files into
..\bin\Debug\Plugins$(ProjectName)\
So how do I use the ProjectName in my output path?
I found several hints that I should replace the encoded string by
<OutputPath>..\bin\Debug\Plugins\$(ProjectName)</OutputPath>
But this does not have any effect. That string is neither displayed properly in Visual Studio nor does it result in the desired output path.
So what options do I have other than using build events?
..\bin\Debug\Plugins\$(Configuration) results in the expected output btw. so using macros is possible...
Using $(MSBuildProjectName) instead of $(ProjectName) solved it.
