Summary0014661: Explicit project type GUID needed with INCLUDE_EXTERNAL_MSPROJECT
DescriptionCurrently, including an external Visual Studio project for a language other than C++ with INCLUDE_EXTERNAL_MSPROJECT will lead to an invalid solution unless the project type GUID is specified explicitly. There is no reason why this should be necessary for well-known standard project types (*.vbproj, *.csproj, etc.). Instead, CMake should be able to guess the correct GUID for these projects from the project file extension. I'm attaching a patch to implement this functionality.

Thanks. Applied with minor tweaks:

 VS: Teach include_external_msproject about non-C++ projects
