Project-Refrenced CLR Assemblies Not Recognized

brockweaver

I'm using version 12.0.35.3485 (trial). If my database project references a CLR using a Project Reference in Visual Studio (i.e. it's another project in the solution, and is referenced as such), that CLR is not included in the compare. However, if I reference that same assembly using a File Reference (i.e. as a dll file), it is recognized.

Is this a known / expected limitation? Will this be addressed in a future release?

Not a deal breaker, but I am evaluating the product for our company's use and I need to know if I should put this in the "Will Be Fixed" or "Does Not Support" status.

I love your product, by the way. Very, very useful.

In SSDT (at least on my machine) the file reference is unrecognized while the project reference is recognized. Is this the behaviour is that SQL Compare should ideally show?
