Remarks

COM Signature

From vsshell.idl:

HRESULT IVsProjectFactory::CreateProject(
   [in] LPCOLESTR pszFilename,
   [in] LPCOLESTR pszLocation,
   [in] LPCOLESTR pszName,
   [in] VSCREATEPROJFLAGS grfCreateFlags,
   [in] REFIID iidProject,
   [out, iid_is(iidProject)] void **ppvProject,
   [out] BOOL *pfCanceled
);

CreateProject is called by the shell when a user tries to create a new project.

Create a new project by cloning an existing template project (which could be empty). The environment uses the file extension to determine the VSPackage on which to call this method.
