);

The Project type GUIDs are a semi-colon delimited list of project factory GUIDs in order of aggregation from outer-most project subtype to the inner-most project subtype. This list also includes the GUID of the inner (base) project. This list is managed by the inner-most project and is persisted in its project file.

Note
It is not necessary for the GUID of the base project itself to be persisted in the project file. The inner-most base project may also choose to strip its own GUID before persisting and implicitly adding it when retrieving the list of GUIDs.
