Find all links to all projects in the solution

Question

My solution contains several projects (e.g. P1, P2). In project dependencies, I set P2 to depend on P1, so P2 uses some classes in P1. When I do "Find all references" on class / method P1, the result shows only occurrences in P1; not the entries used in P2. Is there a way to find all the links to the whole solution?

Answer 1

Project → Project Dependencies is intended only to describe additional link-dependent links. To specify a link dependency for unmanaged code usage:

Project → Properties → General Properties → Structure and Links → Links → Add New Link ... → Projects

and to use managed code:

Project → Add Link → Projects

If this is configured correctly, Visual Studio should be able to find cross-project links.
