submitted by gilf(2123) 1 year, 7 months ago

Two weeks ago I wrote the Revisiting the Repository and Unit of Work Patterns with Entity Framework post. One thing that I thought would be nice was to have an automatic code generation that will help me to build these patterns without sweating. So I sat down and created a T4 Template to auto generate the same patterns. read more...

Reading a Xml File in T4 Templates(blogs.microsoft.co.il)

submitted by gilf(2123) 2 years, 1 month ago

After I wrote the post about the use of T4 templates in EF4, I played with them for a while (not in EF but generally with T4 templates). In an old project that I’ve created almost 3 years ago which automated the use of lookup tables I had an enum. That enum was meant to be the connection between an Xml node names and was heavily used in the application. read more...

T4CSS: A T4 Template for .Less CSS With Compression(haacked.com)

submitted by crpietschmann(11.3k) 2 years, 2 months ago

Pain is often a great motivator for invention, unless you become dull to the pain. I think CSS is one of those cases where there’s a lot of pain that we as web developers often take in stride. Fortunately not everyone accepts that pain and efforts such as LESS are born. As the home page states However, sometimes I just want to have static CSS files. So I decided to write a T4 template for .less. Simply drop it in a folder that contains .less files and it will generate a .css file for each .less file. read more...

T4 Toolbox Offers Alternate LINQ to SQL Class Generator: Explained(goneale.com)

submitted by goneale(1055) 2 years, 6 months ago

If you aren’t up with the know, T4 Templates or the Text Template Transformation Toolkit is a Microsoft template-driven code generation toolkit baked right into Visual Studio 2008 (and available in Visual Studio 2005 as an additional download) which allows you to do some pretty cool stuff in the way of code generation — that being generating classes, sql scripts, MVC and/or Dynamic Data templates, or anything you like really. It can plug in and read database information quickly and has gained a lot more traction over the last year or so with the adoption by ASP.NET MVC and Dynamic Data really driving it’s name, however unfortunately with the lack of great IDE support, which I’m hoping might change a little come Visual Studio 2010 there is no in-built syntax highlighting or easy way to get started with using it (eg. no “Add new item”). However, it’s a great system and can provide loads of benefit out of the box. read more...
