Introduction
Assuming you have read-up on how to create a new Condor Daemon (Creating a new daemon -- a somewhat dated, but useful reference for a daemon developer) or you have a really cool new tool in mind (even a boring one will do too), then the following will help you add a new Project to Condor's Visual Studio Solution file.
For those not versed in the Microsoft development lexicon, a Project as one would expect is a structure that defines a new executable, dynamic link library, etc. anything that Visual Studio can build. As Solution is simply a collection of Projects that enforces pre-defined inter-project dependencies, like a Makefile. All Project files are represented in XML, so they can easily be created and modified by anyone with sufficient XML know how. Solution files, on the other hand, are still a proprietary -- although text, but not very human consumable (it's just lists of GUIDs) -- so it is best to leave Visual Studio's capable hands to make any of you desired changes. This, unfortunately, means that a Windows developer may still always be involved in the introduction of a new Project.
