Help to directly load visual studio solution into the notepad++

[Frank Wang]

I want to use notepad++ to edit and read files included in a visual studio project. The project contains many files in different folder. I can create a workspace and then a project and then create folders that contain files and add files to the project. It is tedious and slow since there are many files. I want to create a plugin that will automatically create the project based on the visual studio solution files in notepad++. Unfortunately, I do not know anything to create such plugins. Does anyone know how hard to create such plugins?

Thanks

Frank

not the newest infos but a good starting point.
http://docs.notepad-plus-plus.org/index.php/Plugin_Development#How_to_develop_a_plugin
In addition, check some of the other plugins code to learn.
Most of them are open source on github and sourceforge.
