NuGet package: 'AdditionalIncludeDirectories' not working in VS 2022

[sven-molkenstruck]

Hi,
Thanks @simon-berger for the NuGet package! In my VS 2022 project the <AdditionalIncludeDirectories> entry in libcpr.props does not seem to work here although everything looks right. The compiler just does not find the folder when I try to
#include "cpr/cpr.h"
--> fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'cpr/cpr.h': No such file or directory

(It does work when I add the folder manually to my project's AdditionalIncludeDirectories.)

I thought that it is necessary to add
\;%(AdditionalIncludeDirectories) to the line (other projects do that), making it
<AdditionalIncludeDirectories>$(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)\$(Platform)\$(Configuration)\include\;%(AdditionalIncludeDirectories)</AdditionalIncludeDirectories>
but that does not seem to solve it here.

When I copy the <ItemDefinitionGroup> / <ClCompile> / <AdditionalIncludeDirectories> nodes from libcpr.props into libcpr.targets, it works fine here. Is that necessary? Apparently in your tests it wasn't.

What do you think?

Thanks!
Sven

Hi @Sven-HP ,

First of all, thank you for your comment and suggestion for improvement and sorry for my late reply, but I am quite busy with other projects at the moment.
Currently I don't have time to test your change and don't know exactly why the error occurs, but if it solves the problem, feel free to create a pull request with your fix.

Best regards
Simon
