Reading VStudio project file programmatically

[jimmy]

Hi,

I am looking to develop a tool which has to read a project file and
its dll references etc. programmatically.
Let me know which forum is the best to ask questions as I don't know
where to start.
Is there a class library available to develop this kind of
functionality ?

Thanks

Hi,

Probably a NG of VS, but honestly, I do not think you will find a lot
of info.

Take a look at the project file, it's a XML file that you could parse
without too much trouble.
