A Solution is a collection of projects. That is, a solution can contain a single project that generates an executable, or a set of projects that generates Executables, Modules, etc.
A Jungle solution is formed of this structure:
- 1.- The solution: A file (with extension Jungle) that contains information of the included projects
- 2.- Projects: Each project (with extension JiProj) is conformed by a set of files that generate an executable, a module, an Html page, whatever.
- 3.- The files(source code)
So, if we’re creating a Monkey game, usually we will have a solution called MyGame.Jungle, that, at the same time can contain a project called SuperAsteroids.JiProj, that at the same time, contains all the files needed to generate the runable compiled file.
In a solution, you can mix several kind of projects. That is, you can have a project that generates an EXE coded in Monkey, and also a project that generates a DLL coded in C++, and also a project that generates a Module mixing Java and Monkey. All this can be done in a single solution, and Jungle Ide will know how to compile everything when you press F5. As easy as this.
