Project Constructor (XmlReader, IDictionary<String, String>, String, ProjectCollection, ProjectLoadSettings)

Constructs a project and evaluates the source code from the given XML reader. The source code is evaluated with the given global properties and given tools version.

Parameters

• xmlReader
