I have a concern about the 3-line fix for "Can't run `Heat project` on VS2013
.vcxproj"
Although heat completes successfully and seems to generate correct results, I
get the following exception that gets logged as a warning:
"Object of type
'System.Collections.Generic.List`1[Microsoft.Build.Framework.ILogger]' cannot
be converted to type
'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1[Microsoft.Build.Framework.ILogger]'."
On
this.types.buildParametersType.GetProperty("Loggers").SetValue(this.buildParameters,
loggers, null);
in the MSBuild40Project constructor.
This doesn't happen when running heat against VS2010 projects. Could some heat
developer comment on this?

Specifically, the 3 lines of code I added were an additional case for the
switch(version) in VSProjectHarvester.cs:
VSProjectHarvester::GetMSBuildProject(string profileFile):
case "12.0":
project = ConstructMsbuild40Project(projectFile, this.Core,
this.configuration, this.platform, "12.0.0.0");
break;

"wixsupport" is Blair Murri. We've told him a couple times his login name is
confusing to people. <shrug/>
He's here and could answer question. Blair?

I notice that Bug 4279 is assigned to wixsupport. Does this mean that someone
is looking into it or is this the same thing as marked Assigned to No one? I am
interested in a fix for this so that we can use Heat against VS2013 C++
projects. I ran heat.exe under a debugger and found where it seems at least a
few lines of code need to be added to support MSBuild 12.0, and after adding
them, I was indeed able to run heat against my VS2013 C++ projects. A
"heat.exe" expert could probably determine if more than just these few lines is
needed - which may well be the case.
