    Description

      SUBDIRS dependencies are written to .sln files in the form

      GlobalSection(ProjectDependencies)
{C1BCDA05-5344-4068-E682-FC50BEF80821}.0 = {62A9A600-5006-168B-5330-D763FB46C397}
{C1BCDA05-5344-4068-E682-FC50BEF80821}.1 = {3624193D-A0F8-23A1-5B1D-C74C60B99DF2}
{C1BCDA05-5344-4068-E682-FC50BEF80821}.2 = {AB6FC145-A0FC-17A9-5CA3-C8ABDE1673FC}
EndGlobalSection

      Since VS 2005 the format looks like this:

      ProjectSection(ProjectDependencies) = postProject
{62A9A600-5006-168B-5330-D763FB46C397} = {62A9A600-5006-168B-5330-D763FB46C397}
{3624193D-A0F8-23A1-5B1D-C74C60B99DF2} = {3624193D-A0F8-23A1-5B1D-C74C60B99DF2}
{AB6FC145-A0FC-17A9-5CA3-C8ABDE1673FC} = {AB6FC145-A0FC-17A9-5CA3-C8ABDE1673FC}
EndProjectSection

      Visual Studio should be able to read the old format but under certain circumstances it fails to convert from the old to the new format and drops the dependency information.
