    <summary>
      <para>
        Builds a Microsoft Visual Studio project file, and by default
        builds a solution file as well.
      </para>
      <para>
        This builds a Visual Studio project file, based on the
        version of Visual Studio that is configured (either the
        latest installed version, or the version specified by
        &cv-link-MSVS_VERSION; in the Environment constructor). For
        Visual Studio 6, it will generate a <filename>.dsp</filename>
        file. For Visual Studio 7, 8, and 9, it will
        generate a <filename>.vcproj</filename> file.  For Visual
        Studio 10 and later, it will generate a
        <filename>.vcxproj</filename> file.
      </para>
      <para>
        By default, this also generates a solution file for the
        specified project, a <filename>.dsw</filename> file for
        Visual Studio 6 or a <filename>.sln</filename> file for
        Visual Studio 7 and later. This behavior may be disabled by
        specifying <literal>auto_build_solution=0</literal> when you
        call &b-MSVSProject;, in which case you presumably want to
        build the solution file(s) by calling the &b-MSVSSolution;
        Builder (see below).
      </para>
      <para>
        The &b-MSVSProject; builder takes several lists of filenames
        to be placed into the project file. These are currently
        limited to <literal>srcs</literal>, <literal>incs</literal>,
        <literal>localincs</literal>, <literal>resources</literal>, and
        <literal>misc</literal>. These are pretty self-explanatory,
        but it should be noted that these lists are added to the
        &cv-link-SOURCES; construction variable as strings, NOT as
        SCons File Nodes.  This is because they represent file names
        to be added to the project file, not the source files used
        to build the project file.
      </para>
      <para>
        The above filename lists are all optional, although at least
        one must be specified for the resulting project file to
        be non-empty.
      </para>
      <para>
        In addition to the above lists of values, the following values
        may be specified:
      </para>
      <variablelist>
        <varlistentry>
          <term>target</term>
          <listitem>
            <para>
              The name of the target <filename>.dsp</filename>
              or <filename>.vcproj</filename> file.
              The correct suffix for the version of Visual Studio
              must be used, but the &cv-link-MSVSPROJECTSUFFIX;
              construction variable will be defined to the correct
              value (see example below).

          <listitem>
            <para>
              The name of this particular variant. For Visual Studio 7
              projects, this can also be a list of variant names. These
              are typically things like "Debug" or "Release", but
              really can be anything you want. For Visual Studio
              7 projects, they may also specify a target platform
              separated from the variant name by a <literal>|</literal>
              (vertical pipe) character: <literal>Debug|Xbox</literal>.
              The default target platform is Win32. Multiple calls
              to &b-MSVSProject; with different variants are allowed;
              all variants will be added to the project file with
              their appropriate build targets and sources.

              If a /std:c++ flag is found then /Zc:__cplusplus is
              appended to the flags if not already found, this
              ensures that intellisense uses the /std:c++ switch.
              The number of <literal>cppflags</literal> entries
              must match the number of <literal>variant</literal>
              entries, or be empty (not specified). If you give

              value of the <literal>Output</literal> field in the
              resulting Visual Studio project file. If this is not
              specified, the default is the same as the specified

      <para>
        Note that because &SCons; always executes its build commands
        from the directory in which the &SConstruct; file is located,
        if you generate a project file in a different directory
        than the &SConstruct; directory, users will not be able to
        double-click on the file name in compilation error messages
        displayed in the Visual Studio console output window. This can
        be remedied by adding the Visual C/C++ <literal>/FC</literal>
        compiler option to the &cv-link-CCFLAGS; variable so that
        the compiler will print the full path name of any files that
        cause compilation errors.

        Starting with version 2.4 of SCons it is
        also possible to specify the optional argument

              <filename>.vcxproj.user</filename> file, depending on the
              version installed. As it is done for cmdargs (see above),
              you can specify a <parameter>DebugSettings</parameter>
              dictionary per variant. If you give only one, it will
              be propagated to all variants.

        Currently, only Visual Studio v9.0 and Visual Studio
        version v11 are implemented, for other versions no file
        is generated. To generate the user file, you just need to
        add a <parameter>DebugSettings</parameter> dictionary to the
        environment with the right parameters for your MSVS version. If
        the dictionary is empty, or does not contain any good value,
        no file will be generated.

        If &cv-MSVS_VERSION; is not set, &SCons; will (by default)
        select the latest version of Visual Studio installed on your

        installed, it will prefer version 7. You can override this by
        specifying the <envar>MSVS_VERSION</envar> variable in the
        Environment initialization, setting it to the appropriate
        version ('6.0' or '7.0', for example). If the specified
