    Can solutions be nested

    I would like to organize my development environment into a master solution
    containing solution folders with child solutions. That way, individual
    solutions can be built on a product by product basis, or all of them from
    the master solutioin controlling the child solutions.

    Is this possible?

      Only projects may exist inside of a single solution. Projects should be
      able to do what you want since projects can be built individually.

          Solutions cannot be nested but with VS 2005, you can organize the projects
          in folders inside a solution. Then you can build folder by folder.

              Thirsty,

              Seeing the answers, maybe it is good that you decribe what is in your
              opinion a solution.

              For some it is a single method while it is for others a complex of projects.

              Cor

                  In my case, a complex system with many solution subfolders (individual
                  products within a suite). In many cases, each product (with numerous
                  projects) can be managed and versioned independently. However, it would also
                  be nice to able to do a "build all" for ALL solutions within a solution on
                  occasion.

                      Which brings us back to one solution with many projects. Each project can
                      be built individually or the entire solution can be built in one shot.

                      One project need not reference another.
