What makes Visual Studio unbind | to link operation with projects in solution.suo file?
Microsoft provides instructions on How to: Bind or untie a solution or project that occurs to resolve the dreaded “Unspecified Error” that occurs when you open a solution. This MSDN forum posted a post saying that it wasn’t connected, and then re-linked its projects to resolve this issue.
As I ran into the same “Unspecified Error” problem, I made a few extra digits and found that the solution.suo file was the only likely candidate that changed after I solved the problem.
I read this answer to the SO question about .suo files , which was effectively one-time and was able to recreate the UE problem through the outdated workspace that I was lying in. So I went ahead and deleted the solution.suo file and opened the solution.sln file. Magically, my problem with the UE is gone with this workspace.
This led me to conclude unbind | bind has some effect on the .suo file, but due to the binary files, the proprietary structure, I was not able to determine what was going on.
My questions:
1. So, what exactly does Visual Studio unbind do | to link operation with projects in solution.suo file?
2. Can anyone suggest what causes these “unspecified errors” when I found a link to the .suo file?
