Summary0014403: Add an option to specify Visual Studio solution name
DescriptionI haven't found how to specify the Visual Studio solution name. If it isn't supported, would it possible to add a variable for that?
Maybe it applies for other IDEs as well.

I saw a discussion about why it shouldn't be necessary and the last project name should be picked, but somehow the solution name ends up being "Project".
Well for clarity when working with several solutions opened at the same time, it would be nice to be able to define this.

In the meantime, I'll create a wrapper which will change the visual studio name after CMake runs, but it's not ideal.

Thanks,
Cedric

Please disregard this bug.

I found that the PROJECT() command is doing exactly that.

"project: Set a name for the entire project.
  project(projectname [CXX] [C] [Java])"
