SSDT and three part names

Currently, SSDT (SQL Server Data Tools) in Visual Studio doesn’t accept self referencing three part names. That is, objects qualified as DatabaseName.Shema.Object, where the database is the same as where the object resides.

A build will generate an error similar to this one:

[red_box]Error: SQL71561: View: [dbo].[VIEW1] has an unresolved reference to object [SSDT1].[dbo].[TBL1].[/red_box]

As a result, the solution won’t build as long as there are unsolved errors of this kind. Three part names in stored procedures only results in a warning for some reason, and won’t stop a build:

[yellow_box]Warning: SQL71562: Procedure: [dbo].[PROC1] has an unresolved reference to object [SSDT1].[dbo].[TBL1].[/yellow_box]
