Pull request overview

This PR extends the C# parser to accept richer inputs (solutions/projects) and to better handle multiple inputs, enabling “multi-project” parsing via Roslyn/MSBuild rather than only directory-based discovery.

Changes:

  • Add input validation and safer log parsing in the C++ wrapper (avoid empty-input and empty-line crashes; log non file-status output).
  • Update the C# parser to support .sln/.slnx and .csproj inputs using MSBuildWorkspace, with a fallback path that extracts project paths from solution files.
  • Add Roslyn MSBuild workspace dependency and ignore .DS_Store.

The MSBuildWorkspace created here is not disposed. Since loading a solution can allocate significant resources, this can cause avoidable memory/file-handle usage. Wrap the workspace in a using/await using (or otherwise ensure Dispose() is called) once loading is complete.

Valid memory optimization concern.

When no C# projects are found in the solution, this method logs an error and returns, but Main will still exit with code 0. That makes the wrapper/parser treat the run as successful even though nothing was parsed. Consider propagating failure (e.g., return a bool/int result or throw) so Main can exit non-zero in this case.

Suggested change
return;
throw new InvalidOperationException(
$"No C# projects found in solution: {solutionPath}");

Valid concern, since in case of other input errors, the program return with a non-zero exit code.
