Change a property of each project in Visual Studio solution?

I have a big solution with many projects. I want to change the Windows SDK Version property for each project but without going through every single one and setting it manually.

The solution is created with cmake-gui from an open source CMake-based framework, i.e. AliceVision.

Solution

  • Put the variable setting in a file (with anything else shared) and then include that into each project's make file.

    See https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.11/command/include.html

    To make this easy to edit, add the include file as a solution item in VS.
