AspNetCoreToSwagger : Wrong output path when setting the "configuration" parameter

See original GitHub issue

Hi,

When I try to change the configuration parameter of the AspNetCoreToSwagger generator, NSwag searches the output in the wrong directory

I use NSwag.MSBuild 11.17.21

This is my original config and it works fine:

csproj

  <Target Name="NSwag" AfterTargets="Build">
    <Exec Command="$(NSwagExe_Core21) run nswag.json" />
  </Target>

nswag.json

//
{
  "runtime": "NetCore21",
  "swaggerGenerator": {
    "aspNetCoreToSwagger": {
      "project": "MyProj.csproj",
      "output": "wwwroot/dev/swagger/v1/swagger.json",
      "noBuild": true,
      "defaultEnumHandling": "String",
      "defaultPropertyNameHandling": "CamelCase",
      "defaultReferenceTypeNullHandling" : "NotNull"
    }
  }
}

As soon as I try to change the configuration, NSwag introduces the absolute path to Debug folder again.

System.InvalidOperationException: Project outputs could not be located in ‘/home/sro/projects/xxx/src/MyProj/bin/home/sro/projects/xxx/src/MyProj/Debug/netcoreapp2.1/’. Ensure that the project has been built.

this is the modified config:

csproj

  <Target Name="NSwag" AfterTargets="Build">
    <Exec Command="$(NSwagExe_Core21) run nswag.json /variables:Configuration=$(Configuration)" />
  </Target>

nswag.json

//
{
  "runtime": "NetCore21",
  "defaultVariables": "Configuration=Debug",
  "swaggerGenerator": {
    "aspNetCoreToSwagger": {
      "project": "MyProj.csproj",
      "configuration": "$(Configuration)",
      "output": "wwwroot/dev/swagger/v1/swagger.json",
      "noBuild": true,
      "defaultEnumHandling": "String",
      "defaultPropertyNameHandling": "CamelCase",
      "defaultReferenceTypeNullHandling" : "NotNull"
    }
  }
}

I tried both on Linux and Windows, same problem

Thanks for your help!
