The environment usually uses the settings in the Solution Configuration property pages for the startup project or projects started when DebugLaunch is called. You can programmatically get and set the startup project using get_StartupProject and set_StartupProject.

Note
get_StartupProject and set_StartupProject have the ability to set only a single startup project. If you want to set multiple startup projects, you should use the Solution Configuration property pages or go through the automation model, specifically, DTE.Solution.SolutionBuild.StartupProjects. For more information, see Contributing to the Automation Model.
