Visual Studio Integration

Visual Studio Integration

In addition to the standalone user interfaces (CodeSmith Explorer and CodeSmith Studio), CodeSmith also offers integration with Microsoft Visual Studio. This integration takes three forms:

CodeSmith Template Explorer

CodeSmith Explorer is available right within Visual Studio.

CodeSmith Project Integration

CodeSmith Projects can be used to generate code within Visual Studio and into your Visual Studio Projects.

ActiveSnippets

ActiveSnippets can be used to generate snippets of code similar to Visual Studio's snippets except with the full power of CodeSmith templates and ability to use complex metadata like database schema and XML.
