about_CC.VisualStudio SHORT DESCRIPTION This is a PowerShell module that exposes the functionality of Visual Studio as well as several qualify of life operations through PowerShell functions. LONG DESCRIPTION Visual Studio has a $dte variable that is accessible through the Package Manager Console (a PowerShell friendly console that lives in Visual Studio). Visual Studio functionality is able to be exposed through this $dte object, such as customizing options or setting NuGet sources. With the $dte object, we can also do things like restarting a visual studio solution or unloading and reloading projects (these would be considered quality of life functions). DETAILED DESCRIPTION There are a few functions: Restart-Solution: This function closes the currently open solution and re-opens it. Get-SolutionName: This function returns the name of the currently open solution. Get-Project: This function returns the object that represents a Visual Studio project.
