Visual Studio "MSB4011" build *warning* - I want to DISABLE it

Question

Hello there,

Some of my projects include property files multiple times, I am aware of it and it is by design, so I want to DISABLE this warning.

The reason those property sheets are included multiple times is because I can include other property sheets in a property sheets, that I use for dependency management.

Example:

Here the property sheet 'zlib' is included from the 'curl' property sheet and from 'zipfs->libzip' property sheet.

Every time I compile I get:

warning MSB4011: "C:\Users\jumat\repos2\include\zlib\zlib.props" ne peut pas être réimporté car il a déjà été importé à "C:\Users\jumat\repos2\include\libzip\libzip.props (4,5)". Il s'agit probablement d'une erreur de création de build. Cette importation est ignorée. [C:\Users\jumat\repos2\urlfs\urlfs\urlfs.vcxproj

How can I DISABLE MSB4011 WARNING? It's just a warning but still annoying.

Thank you.

Hi @Julien Matthey ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

Please try to use the DisabledWarnings to disable the warning:

<PropertyGroup>  
    <DisabledWarnings>4011</DisabledWarnings>  
</PropertyGroup>  

Sincerely,
Anna

It doesn't work :-(

I put

<PropertyGroup>
<DisabledWarnings>4011</DisabledWarnings>
</PropertyGroup>

in every included property sheet and I still get the warning.
