Does anyone know what generates the 'convenience folders' (filters) in a VS solution? Here's the kinda list I usually see in my IDE:-
Notice that the header files are in a separate filter from source files / resource files etc. Unfortunately I just needed to restore some projects from a recent backup and I seem to have lost those filters (which are quite useful). Apart from External Dependencies, everything is now jumbled together:-
If it was just one project I could just set them up again - but I've restored over 20 projects.
Does anyone know what associates the various files with their respective filters (i.e. do I need to re-associate them somehow?) Or will it be a matter of laboriously recreating them all over again...
[Edit...] I just discovered that each project has an associated file called <the_project_name>.filters, These did get restored but for some reason they haven't been re-associated with the project. Any ideas anyone?
