In Visual Studio parlance, a 'solution' is a set of projects that logically belong together.
For example, in a web site, your actual web app may be one project. A back-end scheduling task may be another, etc..
All of these together form a 'solution'.
So, in that sense, the term 'Solution Explorer' kinda makes sense if you squint right.
Whether or not the word 'solution' is appropriate at all is a different issue entirely...
- SwellJoe 18y agoAh, OK. So, a "solution" is made up of many projects, which is made up of many files? It sounds very enterprise-y. I'll promise to stay out its way, as long as it stays out of mine. And I guess I can get by without knowledge of what a Team Foundation Server is or does.
