C# Language Version
I've got a build server/agent (v9.1.6) and I'm trying to build a C# project with the language version explicitly set to C# 6.0. The associated Build Step is Visual Studio (sln) and the Visual Studio property is set to Microsoft Visual Studio 2015. The build log then shows:
Step 2/6: Visual Studio (sln)
[Step 2/6] Solution.sln.teamcity: Build target: TeamCity_Generated_Build
[Solution.sln.teamcity] TeamCity_Generated_Build
[TeamCity_Generated_Build] MSBuild
[MSBuild] Solution.sln: Build targets: Build
[Solution.sln] Build
[Build] MSBuild
[MSBuild] Folder\Project.csproj: Build default targets
[Folder\Project.csproj] CoreCompile
[CoreCompile] Csc
[Csc] C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\bin\csc.exe ... /langversion:5 ...
What part of the tool chain is responsible for setting that langversion option? How can I ensure VS'15 builds use C# 6.0 by default?

Hello Chris,
Do you have
<LangVersion>element specified in the csproj file? See this post for more details.Yes, well, sort of. I just found the issue. It was set to 6 in the Debug configuration, but still set to 5 in the Release configuration. If I had a dollar for every time...
