Wrong $(variables) output

(1/1)

Pecan:
During post processing I get the following output for:

cmd /c echo $(TARGET_OUTPUT_DIR)
cmd /c echo $(TARGET_NAME)
cmd /c echo $(TARGET_OUTPUT_FILE)

C:\Usr\Proj\ThreadSearch\
Debug
.\bin\Debug\ThreadSearch.dll

Shouldn't number 1 be:

 C:\Usr\Proj\ThreadSearch\.bin\Debug\

bigbug:
I also think so. ;)

That's not all, there is something wrong with these variables.

* Create two new console projects (test 1 and test2) in a workspace
* add "cmd /c $(TARGET_OUTPUT_FILE)" to both in pre-build steps
* activate first project
* try "build workspace"
For both projects you will see "./test1".  :(

It seems to me, that the variable expansion works only for the currently activatet project.
