Version 2019.4.14.0
Release notes for version 2019.4.14.0.
General
Updated the guided installer to detect the supported installed versions of Visual Studio and their installation locations rather than hard-coding the paths in the configuration file.
Sandcastle Tools
Fixed MRefBuilder so that it uses netstandard.dll as the system assembly for the core types if it is loaded.
Fixed MRefBuilder so that it doesn't use the incorrect assembly when using auto-redirection.
Fixed MRefBuilder so that it redirects mscorlib.dll to netstandard.dll when documenting a set of assemblies containing a mix of .NET Standard and full .NET Framework assemblies.
Merged changes from addabis to support C# 7.2 language features in the syntax generator components (ref return, in parameters, readonly structs, and ref structs).
Sandcastle Help File Builder
Fixed an issue with the package reference resolver that was causing it to miss many of the reference assemblies in package references.
Fixed handling of duplicate references and inclusion of System.Runtime.dll in the package reference resolver to fix related issues.
Updated the Visual Studio extension project templates to use unique descriptions and names so that they are discoverable in Visual Studio 2019 New Project dialog box.
Modified gathering of build output filenames to only scan subfolders for the web and markdown formats.
Added a BuildDateUtc replacement tag that gets the current build date/time in Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) format.
Added support for referencing project variables in the Assembly Binding Redirection Plug-In configuration. Use the substitution tag format rather than the MSBuild variable format ({@MyAssemblyLatestVersion} rather than $(MyAssemblyLatestVersion)).
Presentation Styles
Fixed the markdown presentation style so that e-mail links in the footer are formatted correctly.
Merged changes from Christopher Watford to fix some issues in the Open XML presentation style.
