Examples

Sub SolutionExample()  
   'This function creates a solution and adds a Visual Basic Console  
   'project to it.   
   Dim soln As Solution  
   Dim proj As Project  
   Dim msg As String  

   'Create a reference to the solution.  
   soln = DTE.Solution  

   ' Create a new solution.  
   soln.Create("c:\temp2", "MyNewSolution")  

   ' Create a new VB project from a template.   
   ' Adjust the template path and save path as needed.  
   proj = soln.AddFromTemplate("<template path>\ConsoleApplication.vbproj", "c:\temp2", "My New Project", True)  
   ' Save the new solution and project.  
   soln.SaveAs("c:\temp2\newsolution.sln")  
   msg = "Created new solution: " & soln.FullName & vbCrLf  
   msg = msg & "Created new project: " & proj.Name

Remarks

The Solution object is a collection of all the projects in the current instance of the IDE and all solution-wide properties such as build configurations. The Solution object contains a project element for every project, whether it is a wrapped project, a subproject, or a top-level project.

Reference this object using DTE.Solution. To refer to virtual projects such as MiscFiles or SolutionItems, use Solution.Item(EnvDTE.Constants.vsProjectKindMisc) or Solution.Item(EnvDTE.Constants.vsProjectKindSolutionItems).
