Can't build any xaml islands app with 2.7.0-prerelease.210827001
See original GitHub issueDescribe the bug I upgraded a Win32 C++/WinRT app to WinUI 2.7.0-prerelease.210827001, now I get a cppwinrt error:
Rebuild started...
1>------ Rebuild All started: Project: Playground, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------

========== Rebuild All: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped ==========
Steps to reproduce the bug Create C++/WinRT app, reference latest winui nuget, build.
Note this does not require me to use WebView2 in my project - the build error happens even before any of my code gets compiled.
Version Info
NuGet package version: Microsoft.UI.Xaml 2.7.0-prerelease.210827001 latest cppwinrt version: 2.0.210825.3 mux brought in webview2 pkg: 1.0.955-prerelease

Thanks @sylveon! I wasn’t trying to suggest using a prerelease package long-term, but just wanted info that would help us narrow down when the issue was introduced. At this point my best guess is that there is some difference between the release and prerelease versions of the WebView2 SDKs that is causing this - I’ll take a look at what the differences are.
Now that the property is available, we should just add that property to the WinUI2 nupkg targets. Something like:
@asklar can you hack your WinUI2 targets locally and see if that would address it?
