Visual Studio SQL Server Project Create Certificate

CREATE CERTIFICATE [MyCert]

FROM BINARY = 0x1234....

WITH PRIVATE KEY (BINARY = 0x1234..., DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD='Pass1',ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD='Pass2');

I get the following Visual Studio compiler error : SQL46005: Expected EXECUTABLE but encountered BINARY instead.

This syntax works on SQL 2012 and I have the database project targeting the correct version.

Thank you for submitting this feedback. We have reproduced the behavior for certificate objects that you’ve described and are now investigating the appropriate resolution. We will update this Connect item as additional information is available.

Thanks again!

I have this issue as well. It makes creating a homogenous test environment amongst our development team more difficult.
