I have the need to create a Guidance Package but cannot find a tutorial.

Hi,
I am might be very wrong but i cannot find a tutorial on how to create a guidance Package.
I know I can look in the various software factories EG "Web service Software and Repository one etc" but to be brutally honest I got lost .

What I am trying to achieve
1) create a package where I can create Multiple Project template and specify the name of the project .Not sure if called "Dinamic vsTemplates".
2) Generate various classes (entities + DataObject class )

etc....

I could go on but If somebody has a small tutorial where it shows how to create a simple class and put in a package that would be fantastic.Then I can take it from there.

Also I have noticed that there is a product called "SFT" downloaded it but doestnt seem to work yet with VS2008.

thanks a lot for any input or suggestions
Thanks for your help

Hi,

There is a GAX/GAT Hands On Lab, which consists on a sample guidance package and a Word document listing step-by-step how the sample guidance package was implemented. It's a much more simpler package than the ones that are available out there like WSSF, WCSF, etc, so it should be a better starting point if you're learning GAX. An updated version of this Hands On Lab is distributed with the install of SFT, if you've that installed it should be somewhere under the installation folder.

Let me know if you can't still find it.

HTH,
