Reference for expression syntax in CSPROJ files
csproj, msbuild
Solution
The Identity bit is one of many MSBuild Well-known Item Metadata. It is essentialy metadata of msbuild Items. You can use the metadata to Transform Item Types.
Problem
Can somebody please point me to a reference for the syntax of the expression language used in csproj / vbproj files within Visual Studio ? I've been seeing usages like the following : ``` <FilesForPackagingFromProject Include="%(CustomFiles.Identity)"> ``` ... and I'm trying to understand the '.Identity' bit.
