How to create csproj command line?

Question

Is there any way to create a CS and WPF solution of Visual Studio templates from command line?

I wrote a C# and WPF code generator, and I want that my output be a C# solution.

Answer 1

Hmmm, what would be the use of it?

I think you can take a look at the /Command switch for devenv:

devenv.exe /Command np

where "np" stands for "new project".

Here is a list of the available commands: Predefined commands, try to play with it...

But I think it would be much simpler to zip an empty solution and just copy it in your script file instead of asking VS to do it over and over again...

To create a Project from command line, simply create and save a Project and use a commandline to copy the folder.
