Clarius.VisualStudio 2.0.5

Common targets to create version-aware Visual Studio extensions easily.

Release Notes

Release Notes:
v1.1.
* Updated for VS2017
* Adds properties:
* Dev: simple version number from Visual Studio version, without the decimal (i.e. '15')
* Adds DEV[n] defined constant for conditional code compilation (i.e. #if DEV15, to compile
 only when building for VS2017)


v1.1.
* Smarter and simpler template authoring. Just set BuildAction to None on all your
 template content as well as the .vstemplate, and they become Smart Templates automatically:
* Supports <Include> metadata to add shared artifacts to the generated ZIP files
* Does not regenerate ZIP files if content didn't change
* Supports linked files that are copied to the output directory
* Sets up the project to always start by running devenv.exe in the experimental
 instance and with logging enabled for easy error diagnostics.

v1.0

* Provides the following MSBuild properties for version-aware projects:
* VisualStudioVersion: for VS2010, sets it to '10.0'
* MinimumVisualStudioVersion: equals VisualStudioVersion to allow opening on any version
* DevEnvDir: if it's empty, for safe command-line building. Can be overriden.
* PublicAssemblies: $(DevEnvDir)\PublicAssemblies\
* PrivateAssemblies: $(DevEnvDir)\PrivateAssemblies\
* VSSDK: the [VSSDK install directory]\VisualStudioIntegration\Common\Assemblies\ folder. Can be overriden.
* VSSDK20: $(VSSDK)v2.0\
* VSSDK40: $(VSSDK)v4.0\
* VSToolsPath: path to the MSBuild targets for the VSSDK
