Request: Functionality to create projects

[mgryning]

I have previously used EnvDTE to create projects, but found that it was unstable when I wanted to create more than one project at a time. I was trying to get it to work via the toolkit / IvsSolution, but I can't figure out the right combination of initializers and parameter.

For instance, i hoped that the below code would create a new C# class library, but I keep getting Package not loaded. I have no idea why. There is also a IvsProjectFactory, but not much documentation around on how to use it.

            IVsSolution ivsSolution = await VS.Services.GetSolutionAsync();
            Guid CSharpGuid = new Guid(ProjectTypes.CSHARP);
            Guid Empty = Guid.Empty;
            Guid Unknown = VSConstants.IID_IUnknown;

            string template = DTEItemHelper.GetVsProjectTemplatePath("ClassLibrary");
            
            int ret = ivsSolution.CreateProject(ref Empty, template, @"C:\Dev Data", "MyTestProjectLibrary", (uint)__VSCREATEPROJFLAGS.CPF_CLONEFILE, ref Unknown, out IntPtr _);

Functionality to create projects of a specific type would be really helpful :-)
