This can be done without modifying the original project: the first thing done in Microsoft.Cpp.Targets, which is normally one of the last things imported in a normal C++ project, is to check if there’s a property called ForceImportBeforeCppTargets and if so, import it. So suppose you want to add ADDITIONAL to the preprocessor definitions you … Read more
TL;DR; Recompile all your old static-linked .lib files with current-compiler (VS2012, in OP’s case). You are trying to link objects compiled by different versions of the compiler.

Also you can put the Nuget package references in a conditional ItemGroup manually or using VS Nuget Package Manager. Here is what your .csproj should … Read more
Old thread, I know, but I found a way to do this that I keep forgetting, and on my search to find it one last time, I stumbled upon this question.

To resolve this issue, you will need to remove the Roslyn compiler from the project template. … Read more
Here’s what I did to get this working with my corporate proxy that uses NTLM authentication. I downloaded NuGet.exe and then ran the following commands (which I found in the comments to this discussion on CodePlex): nuget.exe config -set http_proxy=http://my.proxy.address:port nuget.exe config -set http_proxy.user=mydomain\myUserName nuget.exe config -set http_proxy.password=mySuperSecretPassword This put the following in my NuGet.config … Read more
There is and it is not dependent on post build events. Add the file to your project, then in the file properties select under “Copy to Output Directory” either “Copy Always” or “Copy if Newer”. See MSDN.
By dynamically linking with /MD, you are exposed to system updates (for good or ill), your executable can be smaller (since it doesn’t have the library embedded in it), and I believe that at very least the code segment of a DLL is shared amongst all processes that are actively using it (reducing the total … Read more
I got it mostly working without a custom msbuild script. Here are the relevant TeamCity build configuration settings: Artifact paths: %system.teamcity.build.workingDir%\MyProject\obj\Debug\Package\PackageTmp Type of runner: MSBuild (Runner for MSBuild files) Build file path: MyProject\MyProject.csproj Working directory: same as checkout directory MSBuild version: Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 MSBuild ToolsVersion: 4.0 Run platform: x86 Targets: Package Command line … Read more
