What does MS mean by the words "MinimalVisualStudioVersion" found in .sln files?
-
The usual dumb question from me... and I apologize for being this way. But I see as a trend here in CP project Articles' posters' run up to publishing ... tag lack, beyond the general Visual Studio. It's easy to browse the code; yes. Read the Format version, the actual VS "#" and then there's the "VisualStudioVersion". I suppose I want to head off the "This project created with a newer version of Visual Studio" warning. But that "MinimumVisualStudioVersion" has always had me baffled as when I open a newer project that, if the "minimum" were indeed something to Visual Studio, my VS, which passes muster according to this spec, never seems to be able to do much in the way of filling out the Browser tree beyond the next message "fail to load project" (sp). Short of suggesting I subscribe to the latest VS incarnation, are there any acceptable apologies for for this descriptive non sense from MS then?
