I would like to move my builds from using Visual Studio SLN files to using MSBUILD sripts (we're approaching 100 projects in the SLN file), but I don't want to dual-maintain the SLN files for when we're editing code within Visual Studio.
What I would like is to create a dependency-tree of MSBUILD scripts, and then be able to select any one MSBUILD script from Visual Studio to use as if it were the SLN file - including all dependent projects automatically.
Can Visual Studio do this? Are there any existing tools that can dynamically create SLN files from MSBUILD scripts? Has anybody tried to write a tool to do this?
