Description

Summary

I stumbled on PR #11535 while working on a migration from .sln to .slnx. For me it seems to make sense that the after.{SolutionName}.slnx.targets should also work as it is an exact match to my solution name (including the extension). The documentation also says that both .sln and .slnx should work https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/msbuild/customize-solution-build?view=vs-2022. I wonder why it was decided to not support the after.{SolutionName}.slnx.targets.

Background and Motivation

It seems unintuitive that the after.{SolutionName}.slnx.targets, an exact match to the solution name is not supported.

Proposed Feature

Add support after.{SolutionName}.slnx.targets instead of only the .sln variant.

Direction de recherche
Review the referenced PR #11535 to understand why .slnx targets were excluded. Examine the MSBuild source code for solution file handling, likely in files like `SolutionFile.cs` or similar, to determine where to add support for `after.{SolutionName}.slnx.targets`. Look for relevant tests in the repository to ensure the new feature is covered.
