MSBuild fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file

Vote count:

I know there are others subjects on this, but none of their solutions worked for me. I have this simple code :

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "AccurateTimeStamping.h"

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{   
    return 0;
}

I would like to build it using MSBuild. The following header is in another directory

AccurateTimeStamping.h

I already successfully build this project using MSBuild and environnement variable. But I want to avoid env variable. In command line I did this :

D:\propTest>msbuild.exe propTest.sln /p:ReferencePath=M:\Utils\include

Or this

D:\propTest>msbuild.exe propTest.sln /p:AdditionalIncludeDirectories=M:\Utils\include

Or This

D:\propTest>msbuild.exe propTest.sln /p:"ReferencePath=<M:\Utils\include>"

Or this :

D:\propTest>msbuild.exe propTest.sln /p:includepath=M:\Utils\include

But I still have :

d:\proptest\proptest\proptest.cpp(5): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include
file: 'AccurateTimeStamping.h': No such file or directory

I can not modify the projects that I have to build and I can't change .vcxproj.

Is there a way to pass the path of .h files to MSBuild using only command line and no env var??

Any help would be greatly appreciated !
