override ThisAssemblyNamespace

[mdissel]

What is the proper way of declaring a ThisAssemblyNamespace variable so that ThisAssembly is declared within a namespace?

Just pass it as a property during build `/p:ThisAssemblyNamespace=Foo`, or just setting it in your project in a property group `<ThisAssemblyNamespace>Foo</ThisAssemblyNamespace>`

stopped working with 3.0.4 (did not test older 3.0.x versions) in multiple projects not changed since years.

Agreed - my Directory.Build.targets has

<ThisAssemblyNamespace>$(RootNamespace)</ThisAssemblyNamespace>

This works up to and including 2.3.0, but is ignored in 3.0.2 and 3.0.4

Ooopsey...

Yep, I didn't think this was an important feature. So stick to 2.x for now. Not sure how much priority it will have in 3.x. It's not high on my list since I never use a custom namespace...
