KDevelop plugin to read visual studio solution files. This is a work in progress, so far it only works with Visual Studio 2008 solution files.
What works:
- Open a solution file and get the project tree.
- Build an entire solution (no output).
- Includes/defines for the parser.
What does not work:
- Debugging.
- Editing the project/solution files in any way.
- Solution file must have the same name as its parent directory.
Notes
To build your solution from KDevelop you need to set the path to the MSVC IDE executable in the project configuration page. This is devenv.com or VCExpress.exe (if you have the express edition), and it is usually located under C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE.
Installation
Build and copy kdevmsvcmanager.dll to your KDevPlatform plugin directory (usually /usr/lib/plugins/kdevplatform/26 on linux).
