Description
When csproj contains MsBuild Variables in the ProjectReferences they are not properly replaced but just are literally copied.
"ref": "C:\\Source\\\\Tool\\Project\\$(RootDirectory)Tool\\Tool.csproj@undefined",
"dependsOn": []
},
$(RootDirectory) is a Property in the Build
Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the issue with the shown csproj ProjectReferences example, including the $(RootDirectory) MSBuild property. Trace the project-reference path parsing and replacement behavior; done means the generated ref resolves the property instead of retaining the literal variable and an undefined suffix.
