Error running cdk deploy on capitalize-string

[kairs]

🐛 Bug Report

What is the problem?

Running the "capitalize-string" causes an error in "cdk deploy"
https://github.com/aws-samples/aws-cdk-examples/tree/master/csharp/capitalize-string#this-project

Ref: MSBUILD : error MSB1008: Only one project can be specified.

This seems to be related to cdk.json (https://github.com/aws-samples/aws-cdk-examples/blob/master/csharp/capitalize-string/cdk.json) where 2 builds are specified

Reproduction Steps

Clone the repository and follow the readme here:
https://github.com/aws-samples/aws-cdk-examples/tree/master/csharp/capitalize-string#build--deploy

I ran into the same problem. Changed the cdk.json to this, and it worked:

{
"app": "dotnet run -p src/CapitalizeString/CapitalizeString.csproj"
}

Try changing ; to && like:

"app": "dotnet publish -c Release CapitalizeStringHandler/src/CapitalizeStringHandler && dotnet run -p src/CapitalizeString"
