Go To Definition and Go To Implementation should be ref assembly aware.

[tannergooding]

When using the new 'reference assembly' feature of the compiler, the IDE takes you to the metadata view when using 'Go To Definition' and displays a dialog indicating "The symbol has no implementations" when using 'Go To Implementation'

I would expect the IDE to be 'aware' of this feature and to still take you to the source file in the solution.

This is unrelated to the actual features, and is more about what the project-system/workspace do here. It sounds like they're attaching ref-assemblies as actual assemblies, instead of as P2P references. Tagging @jasonmalinowski

@tannergooding do you have #20833 @sharwell already added some support there.

[tannergooding]

@Pilchie, this was on vsuml.26724.4002

@tannergooding I just tested this with 15.3 Preview 6 and both Go To Definition and Go To Implementation were working as expected. I enabled the feature like this for testing:

<PropertyGroup>
  <ProduceReferenceAssembly>true</ProduceReferenceAssembly>
  <CompileUsingReferenceAssemblies>true</CompileUsingReferenceAssemblies>
</PropertyGroup>

Ok. I confirmed this is fixed in 15.3 Preview 6. It seems VSUML doesn't have the change yet.
