VSTS4DBP: Be aware when removing objects from your project

As one uses a new product he or she starts to learn all the intracacies that aren't obvious on the surface. And that is true of Visual Studio Team System for Database Professionals (aka Datadude, aka DBPro) as well. Be aware of something that tripped me up today. Its easy to remove objects from the project and by and large datadude will worry about all the dependancies on your behalf. What it will not do is check dependancies in the pre and post deployment scripts. What that means is that your build can succeed but deploy can fail because the pre/post deployment scripts reference non-existent objects. Be aware.

And one other thing that should go without saying. Check your build and deploys locally before handing them over to your buildmaster because when our CI build failed due to the problem above my buildmaster was (rightly) none too chuffed.
