问题 I have T4 template (mycode.tt) which generates a cs file. I usually right click the tt file and select RunCustomTool which internally takes an xml file and generate code for me.

I'm trying to create a custom tool for code generation in Visual Studio 2010. First I register it: "$(FrameworkSDKDir)Bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools\gacutil.exe" /if "$(TargetPath)" Then I add it via a reg key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\CLSID\{6A96476E-74F3-4AB3-9CCA-F15EC6104D84}] "RuntimeVersion"="v4.0.30319" "Class"="MapBuildTool.MapFileGenerator" "Assembly"="MapBuildTool, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=en-US, PublicKeyToken=7d8abca94a1e38ae" "ThreadingModel"="Both" "InprocServer32"="C:\\Windows\\SysWOW64\\mscoree.dll" @="MapBuildTool" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE

问题 Background: We have a custom tool which takes the xml input and generates the cs output. A custom tool needs to register with the Visual studio in order to make it work with that version of visual studio. What we have done: We have done the custom tool registration with the Visual Studio 2015 which is working fine. But now the problem is with Visual Studio 2017. Problem: So far in my research, I found until Visual Studio 2015, VS had the direct registry entries which were allowing to register

I am writing a custom tool and I currently have it doing what I want as far as functionality. I would like to be able to write to Visual Studio if something goes wrong. (Incorrectly formatted code or whatever). Are there any standards for this? Right now I basically can force the tool to fail and Visual Studio puts in a warning that it has done so.

Output Window To write to the "General" output window in Visual Studio, you need to

I would like the files generated by my custom tool to be hidden, but I cannot find any documentation on how this is done. An example of what I'm looking for is WPF code behind files.

WPF code behind files (Window1.g.i.cs, for example), are generated by a custom tool. The solution is to create a Target that adds your files to the Compile ItemGroup rather than adding them explicitly in your .csproj file. That way Intellisense will see them and they will be
