Description

Description

I can't create nuget package using paket.exe from CLI C++ library

Repro steps

I have ./.paket/ in my PATH environment variable

  1. Create empty C++ project (I used VS2015)
  2. run paket init (I actually run ../other-project/.paket/paket init)
  3. run paket.bootstrapper
  4. run paket install
  5. add paket.template with content type project
  6. run paket pack output .
Expected behavior

Paket creates "empty" nuget package

Actual behavior

$ paket pack output .
Paket version 3.15.0.0
Paket failed with:
Unable to find Release output path node in file C:\projects\paket-cpp\ClassLibrary1\ClassLibrary1\ClassLibrary1.vcxproj for any known platforms

Research direction

Start with the attached ClassLibrary1.vcxproj and the paket.template containing type project, then run paket pack output . to reproduce the missing Release output path error. Trace how Paket reads the project’s output paths for CLI C++ projects; done means the command creates the expected empty NuGet package without that error.
