Examples

Sub SolutionExample(ByVal dte As DTE2)  
    ' This function creates a solution and adds a Visual C# Console  
    ' project to it.  
    Try  
        Dim soln As Solution3 = CType(DTE.Solution, Solution3)  
        Dim csTemplatePath As String  
        ' This path must exist on your computer.  
        ' Replace <file path> below with an actual path.  
        Dim csPrjPath As String = "<file path>"  
        MsgBox("starting")  
        ' Get the project template path for a C# console project.  
        csTemplatePath = soln.GetProjectTemplate _  
        ("ConsoleApplication.zip", "CSharp")  
        ' Create a new C# Console project using   
        ' the template obtained above.  
        soln.AddFromTemplate(csTemplatePath, csPrjPath, _  
        "New CSharp Console Project", False)  
        MsgBox("done")  
    Catch ex As System.Exception  
        MsgBox(ex.ToString)  
    End Try  
End Sub

public void SolutionExample(DTE2 dte)  
{  
    // This function creates a solution and adds a Visual C# Console  
    // project to it.  
    try{  
        Solution3 soln = (Solution3)_applicationObject.Solution;  
        String csTemplatePath;  
        // The file path must exist on your computer.  
        // Replace <file path> below with an actual path.  
        String csPrjPath = "<file path>";  
          "<file path>MessageBox.Show("Starting...");  
          "<file path>"<file path>csTemplatePath =   
          soln.GetProjectTemplate("ConsoleApplication.zip", "CSharp");  
        // Create a new C# Console project using the template obtained   
        // above.  
        soln.AddFromTemplate(csTemplatePath, csPrjPath,  
          "New CSharp Console Project", false);  
        MessageBox.Show("Done!");  
    }  
    catch(SystemException ex)  
    {  
        MessageBox.Show("ERROR: " + ex);  
    }  
}

Remarks

The name of the project displayed in Solution Explorer is ProjectName without the file extension. AddFromTemplate fails if the new project file name already exists in the destination.

Note

For Visual Basic and Visual C# projects: The returned Project object has a value of Nothing or null. You can find the created Project object by iterating through the DTE.Solution.Projects collection by using the ProjectName parameter to identify the newly created project.
