Solution and Project Configuration

Solutions configurations are mapped to Project configurations in the following manner.

<font face="consolas"> <table> <tr> <th>Solution</th> <th>Managed Projects</th> <th>Native Projects</th> </tr> <tr> <td>Debug|AnyCPU</td> <td>Debug|AnyCPU</td> <td>Debug|<font color="red">Win32</font></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Debug|x86</td> <td>Debug|<font color="red">AnyCPU</font></td> <td>Debug|<font color="blue">Win32</font></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Debug|x64</td> <td>Debug|x64</td> <td>Debug|x64</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Release|AnyCPU</td> <td>Release|AnyCPU</td> <td>Release|<font color="red">Win32</font></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Release|x86</td> <td>Release|<font color="red">AnyCPU</red></td> <td>Release|<font color="blue">Win32</font></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Release|x64</td> <td>Release|x64</td> <td>Release|x64</td> </tr> </table> </font>

• AnyCPU solution configuration is intended for developer-builds only.
• Official build would always specify x86 or x64 solution configurations explicitly.
• Native projects should map AnyCPU solution-configuration to x86 project configuration
• Managed projects should map x86 solution-configuration to AnyCPU project configuration
• Use Solution->Properties->Configuration view to ensure that the mapping between solution-configuration and project configuration is consistent for every possible configuration.
• Note that packaging projects under nupkg folder have only one (AnyCPU) configuration
