+VS_CSHARP_<tagname>
+-------------------
+
+Visual Studio and CSharp source-file-specific configuration.
+
+Tell the Visual Studio generator to set the source file tag
+``<tagname>`` to a given value in the generated Visual Studio CSharp
+project. Ignored on other generators and languages. This property
+can be used to define dependencies between source files or set any
+other Visual Studio specific parameters.
+
+Example usage:
+
+.. code-block:: cmake
+
+ set_source_files_property(<filename>
+ PROPERTIES
+ VS_CSHARP_DependentUpon <other file>
+ VS_CSHARP_SubType "Form")

Visual Studio (``VS_*``) are worth a look (for setting toolset
versions, root namespaces, assembly icons, ...).
-* Auto-linking in ``.csproj`` files: In C#/.NET development with
- Visual Studio there are a number of visual editors used which
- generate code. Both the generated files and the ones edited
- with the UI are connected in the ``.csproj`` file using
- ``<DependentUpon>`` tags. If CMake finds within a C# project
- any source file with extension ``.Designer.cs`` or ``.xaml.cs``,
- it checks sibling files with extension ``.xaml``, ``.settings``,
- ``.resx`` or ``.cs`` and establishes the dependency connection.
