Hi,

When I create a new, empty MFC application in VS 2013 and run the vcxproj file 
through Heat with "-pog Binaries", I get this error:

error HEAT5305: Failed to load project testapp.vcxproj: Unable to cast object 
of type 'System.Xml.XmlComment' to type 'System.Xml.XmlElement'

If I create the MFC app in VS 2010 instead, it works.
It seems to have something to do with the "ToolsVersion" attribute in the 
vcxproj file. It's set to 12.0 in the file made in VS 2013 and if I change it 
to 4.0 and delete any "PlatformToolset" elements from the file, it works. (But 
I guess it's not a good idea to do that, or?)

(I know MFC is old, but we have some old projects we would like to move to VS 
2013 and WiX, so it would be very nice if I could get this to work.)

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Gunnar
