I don't believe this functionality exists, I'm not sure how that would work for VS or XCode, can either of them be instructed to not link?

@piotrdz Can you elaborate on why linking the sibling project normally is not an option? Having the linking decorators being handled properly for sibling projects is non-trivial but ignoring them...
