How to configure toolset specific settings on shared MSBuild user props

Problem

User defined props for MSBuild stored in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\MSBuild\v4.0 are shared by all PlatformToolset configurations (v90, v100, v110..). This can be a problem when you want toolset specific setting, especially for LibraryPath.

Solution

Use Condition attibute like the following:

    <LibraryPath Condition="'$(PlatformToolset)'=='v90'">
      $(LibraryPath);/path/to/vc9/specific/libs
    </LibraryPath>
    <LibraryPath Condition="'$(PlatformToolset)'=='v100'">
      $(LibraryPath);/path/to/vc10/specific/libs
    </LibraryPath>
