Description

Hi,

to be able to publish the WWI to a database from Visual Studio 2017 one has to rename the publish profile from WideWorldImporters.xml to WideWorldImporters.publish.xml (otherwise a double click just shows the XML instead of the publishing dialog). Would renaming make sense, or is there any benefit having it named in the current way?

regards

Research direction

Start with wwi-ssdt/wwi-ssdt/WideWorldImporters.xml, the publish profile referenced in the issue. Check whether renaming it to WideWorldImporters.publish.xml enables the Visual Studio 2017 publishing dialog without affecting database publishing; done means the renamed profile works as described.
