[Question] About solution file (roslyn.sln)

[TobiasSekan]

Hello, I hope it is the right corner for this question

I currently working on a vscode extension for Visual Studio soution files
(see https://github.com/TobiasSekan/SolutionExtension)

and I have seen that you use SharedMSBuildProjectFiles in your solution file.

My Question:
What are the numbers on the right side (on each line)?

e.g.

src\Analyzers\VisualBasic\CodeFixes\VisualBasicCodeFixes.projitems*{0141285d-8f6c-42c7-baf3-3c0ccd61c716}*SharedItemsImports = 5

• is this only a number
• or is this a special type
• or ...

(Is there a developer documentation about these numbers?)

I would be pleased to receive a reply from you
With best regards

You might find this discussion on the MSBuild repo useful: dotnet/msbuild#545

If you want more information than that, your best bet is probably to ask on the project system repo.

Thanks for the info
