F# interactive: Reference a project in currently open solution

Question

I would like to use the F# interactive console with the projects in the currently open solution in Visual Studio 2010. Is there a quick and easy way to add a reference in the F# interactive console to reference projects in the currently open solution?

Answer 1

I've got lines like this at the top of my .fs file:

#if INTERACTIVE #r @"C:\path\to\some.dll" #I @"C:\Users\bford\path\to\a\project\in\this\solution\bin\Debug" #r "Project.name" #endif 

Alt-Enter now drops me into fsi with all the required stuff loaded
