Hi,

I'm maintaining a project that uses SharpKit (5.5.0) and I think I've found a bug in SKC, but I'm not the original developer and am not 100% clear on the SharpKit pipeline. I'd like to know if this is a SharpKit bug, a configuration issue in my project, or if I'm just doing something fundamentally wrong.

I have a web project that contains both legacy pages using WebForms, and newer pages using WebAPI+SharpKit. The project compiles in Visual Studio, but the build ultimately fails with Unexpected character $'`.

I've traced the problem to a codebehind file for a legacy WebForms page - a logging statement was refactored to use string interpolation instead of String.Format(). The solution builds successfully if I revert that line.

I'm assuming that the issue is the SharpKit compiler isn't aware of the C# 6 string interpolation syntax, so when the compiler parses the project, it trips over this syntax (even though the problem code is not in a file that SharpKit needs to compile).

Does that make sense? If so, are there any options for a workaround? If not, can you suggest where I might look to diagnose this issue?

Thanks!
