We don't use MSBuild with hundreds of projects, but Visual Studio uses
MSBuild to build the solution, so if your solution builds in Visual
Studio, it should also build using MSBuild on the command line.

Is anyone using MSBuild with hundreds of projects within a single
solution? Or preferably can it "unscramble" dependencies across
hundreds of projects without a solution file, using a combination of
project and file assembly references, and perform a clean build in the
true dependency order?
(BTW, I am looking on the MSDN, but I think it would take quite a bit of
time to follow the concepts described there..)
