The concept of the Visual C++ filter structure -

i quiet confused way visual studio 2013 handles project construction visual c++ projects. seems visual studio 2013 uses kind of "filter structure" organize project. did not find reason structure. why filter structure , not simple folder construction in other ide? , why there no documentation on msdn kind of structure? best find project , solution files , thing seems filter

projname.vcxproj.filters: filters file. specifies set file added solution. example, .h file set in header files node.
