Simple project with 2 files and 2 configs none

Description Don Porges CLA 2008-05-05 11:38:08 EDT 
Build ID: M20080221-1800

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Create a project with 2 (main()) source files and 2 configs.
2. Exclude one file from one config and the other file from the other config.  
3. Build each config.

The project tree will show one source file with '+' next to it, indicating that the outline is available; the other source file will be below that, with no '+'.

4. Change the active config back and forth.  The tree does not change; it always acts as if the "first" config in the project is the current active one, in this respect.  It should reflect the current active configuration.


More information:

The Project Explorer view is doing the same thing.

There is a misperception which configuration is shown in Project Explorer view. It is not Active configuration but the configuration which indexer uses - so it is in sync with code navigation and highlighting in editor. This configuration is set in project properties->"C/C++ General"->Indexer->"Build configuration for the indexer". What you actually want is to set that to "Use active build configuration". Then it works as you expect.
