Patch for Issue #14 & trivial fix in MSBuildParser

• Modification for "Any CPU" platform - https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/503935/ for more detail see Issue #14
• Fixed variable of variable in the 'simplify' section e.g.: ($(var:project):project)

found the probable cause

e.g. for AnyCPU platform:

in .csproj we have the next condition for PropertyGroup (where problem is reproduced):

#!xml

  <PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Debug|AnyCPU' ">
    <DebugSymbols>true</DebugSymbols>
    <DebugType>full</DebugType>
    <Optimize>false</Optimize>
    <OutputPath>bin\Debug\</OutputPath>
    <DefineConstants>DEBUG;TRACE</DefineConstants>
    <ErrorReport>prompt</ErrorReport>
    <WarningLevel>4</WarningLevel>
    <PlatformTarget>AnyCPU</PlatformTarget>
  </PropertyGroup>

and.. that is:

#!c#

dteProject.ConfigurationManager.ActiveConfiguration.PlatformName

contains Platform as a 'Any CPU' from EnvDTE !

MS Connect Issue #503935 - MSBuild inconsistent platform for "Any CPU" between solution and project:

holy hedgehogs -_-' fix is coming soon

yes, problem with OutputPath

but I don't know, why is so о_О vsSBE provide only wrapper.. problems with initialize objects of Microsoft.Build.Evaluation

i.e. i can fix this, however...

#!c#

+ [157] "OutDir"="" ["$(OutputPath)"] Microsoft.Build.Evaluation.ProjectProperty {Microsoft.Build.Evaluation.ProjectProperty.ProjectPropertyXmlBacked}

problem can be with $(OutputPath) before evaluating the OutDir

/ similar: comment-11696239

In ProjectNode of part Microsoft.VisualStudio.Project:

#!c#

string outputPath = this.GetOutputPath(this.currentConfig);
if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(outputPath))
{
    // absolutize relative to project folder location
    outputPath = Path.Combine(this.ProjectFolder, outputPath);
}

...

public virtual void PrepareBuild(string config, bool cleanBuild)
{
    ...
    string outputPath = Path.GetDirectoryName(options.OutputAssembly);
    ...
}
