Manual Generation

Use the following steps to get started using the PLINQO for Linq to Sql templates if you are not planning on using the QuickStart template.

This is useful when you are wanting to add PLINQO to an existing or new project.
  1. Create a new Class Library project in Visual Studio.
  2. Add a new CodeSmith project file to the Visual Studio project.
  3. Add a new Output to the project file for the Dbml.cst template.
  4. Add another Output to the project file for the Entities.cst template.
  5. Optionally, Add an Output for the Managers.cst template.
  6. Set the Sample.csp -> Output Options -> Add Outputs to Project to unchecked.  The templates update the project for you.
  7. Finally, Generate the Outputs.
