title: Visual Studio 2015 build event variables
body: <p>I want to use some simple variables in the Post-Build event. But I am getting some strangeness. I can't tell if this is a VS bug or I am doing something wrong.</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone please tell me why I can't use %debug% or %aa% ? See the Evaluated Value area to see how VS 2015 is treating these variables.</p>
