I think I found a project references wizard bug.
To repro take a sln and place various csproj files in solution folders, e.g.
<slnRoot>\ProjectGrouping1\ProjectA\ProjectA.csproj.
Now in your <slnRoot>\Setup\Setup.wixproj add a reference to ProjectA at which
point the Setup.wixproj contains
<ProjectReference Include="..\ProjectGrouping1\ProjectA\ProjectA.wixproj">
<Name>ProjectA (ProjectGroup1\ProjectA)</Name>
<Project>{<ProjectA.csproj Guid}</Project>
<Private>True</Private>
</ProjectReference>
Now in some wix file make a reference to
<File Id="Company.Technology.ProjectA.dll"
Name="Company.Technology.ProjectA.dll" Source="$(var.ProjectA.TargetPath)" />
Now when you compile it throws compiler errors stating that it does not know
anything about $(var.ProjectA.TargetPath). The fix is to open Setup.wixproj in
notepad and remove the " (ProjectGrouping1\ProjectA)" suffix that was included
in the <Name> element entry. After that the compile works.
