I've got a project structure where projects may reside in a sub folder of another project. By this the directory structure reflects the namespace and assembly name structure. One common case (but not the only) for this are the test projects.
So I maybe have:
Foo/
Abc.cs
Foo.csproj
Tools/
Def.cs
Test/
Foo.Test.csproj
AbcTests.cs
ToolsTests/
DefTests.cs
Bar/
Foo.Bar.csproj
Ghi.cs
Test/
Foo.Bar.Test.csproj
GhiTests.cs
Expected behavior
There is an option that tells msbuild to automatically exclude all sub folders that contain *.csproj files.
So when building Foo.csproj nothing from Test, Bar or Bar/Test sub folders will be built but the content of Tools will be build. When building Bar/Foo.Bar.csproj nothing from Bar/Test will be build.
Actual behavior
At the moment I have to explicitly exclude Test and Bar from Foo.csproj and Test from Foo.Bar.csproj.
