When I reference the code generator by selecting the DLL from its output path then the project can no longer be built. (using a project-to-project reference works but requires the generator project to be loaded into the same solution)

========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 1 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========
Using VS 2017 RTM and nuget package 0.2.10
Note: I've made sure to set build dependencies manually so the problem is not that VS tries to compile both at the same time and the DLL is temporarily gone. [edit] also the problem happens if the project is not in the solution at all.
@weltkante Since this is a very old issue and the project was drastically refactored, I'll close this for now. If you still experience the issue with the current version, please open new one.
