VC++ Configuration Manager bug

[Nikolay Kojuharov]

I posted this a few months ago in a different form, and I am not sure anyone
responded.

If you name your solution configuration with a one letter name (like D or R)
it is not saved in the solution file in the following section (i.e. on save
the lines describing the configurations disappear):

GlobalSection(SolutionConfiguration) = preSolution
EndGlobalSection

If I use a longer name, like Debug or even DD it works:

GlobalSection(SolutionConfiguration) = preSolution
Debug = Debug
Release = Release
EndGlobalSection

This prevents other tools like Incredibuild from working correctly.

Nikolay,

I'll try to pass this on to MS. You may also want to contact the tool
vendors to see what they have to say about the problem.
