SAPROJ Format

mlshoe63

Is the format of SAPROJ files documented anywhere?

Hi @mlshoe63,

We don't have any documentation on the saproj format, I'm sorry to say. The format for a very simple saproj file though may look something like:

<SmartAssemblyProject ProjectId="{a6ebe03d-50d4-447c-bc11-ad7a41750be1}" Version="2.0">
    <MainAssemblyFileName>..\Documents\Visual Studio 2017\Projects\ConsoleApp2\ConsoleApp2\bin\Debug\ClassLibrary1.dll</MainAssemblyFileName>
