On this project: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/mthamil/plantumlstudio, I have updated everything to .NET 4.6 and have used C# 6 syntax. I updated the build environment to Visual Studio 2015. However, it is failing with compiler errors, clearly because of the new syntax. Any idea what is wrong?

    If your project build step is set to "MSBuild" make sure .sln file has # Visual Studio 14 header (not # Visual Studio 2013); otherwise AppVeyor will force MSBuild 12.0.

    Can't believe I missed that. I figured VS would automatically change it. Thanks!
