    MSVC project question

    Hello..

    I'm working on a solution that has 2 applications that depend each on another. (2 programs)

    What I want to do is a multiproject inside a solution (more projects). Im unsure how to do this - some source files are the same for both applications. Is there any tutorial that shows this or you know of any sample solution that uses that kind of approach?

    I'm first time doing that kind of project, so any help would be much appreciated!

    Should I just create 2 projects in my solution and thats all?

    Best regards and thanks for help

    Well a solution is a collection of projects as far as I know, so it seems like a good idea to me.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    I would put the common files in the 3rd project - static library and will use it in both "main" projects
    all 3 project would be put into the same solution
    All problems in computer science can be solved by another level of indirection,
    except for the problem of too many layers of indirection.
