hello,

I have a prob reg multiple-project vstemplate

I have to make template for 4 projects in a soln.

I successfully create the multiproject vstemplate,but my prob start now

When I go to New->project->I get my template here,

when I click it I give its Name and location let it be "TestTemplate" and location be "c:\Test"

The default structure that I get at C:\Test directory is

TestTemplate->TestTemplate(Folder)->prj1,prj2,prj3,prj4
->Visualstudio solution File

These prj's folders contains individuals Mytemplate.vstemplate file.

I dont'nt want this structure ,I have to use some more folders, when anyone click myTemplate then structure that I want should be

Hrmate(Folder)->3rd party(folder)->Contains third party tools
->Data(folder)->contains files and folders
->business(folder)->bus1(folder),Source(folder)

->Versioning(folder)contains files and folders

->Webservices(folder)contains files and folders

Then in Source ->Sub1(folder)\TestTemplate(Project Name folder),.Sln file

And Now in TestTemplate folder I want my project i.e

\TestTemplate\Prj1,prj2,prj3,prj4

|->

My Multiproject Vstemplate file is as:

<VSTemplate Version="2.0.0"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/vstemplate/2005"
Type="ProjectGroup">
<TemplateData>
<Name>Test Template</Name>
<Description>Two great templates.</Description>
<ProjectType>CSharp</ProjectType>
<ProjectSubType>
</ProjectSubType>
<SortOrder>4</SortOrder>
<CreateNewFolder>false</CreateNewFolder>
<LocationField>Enabled</LocationField>
<EnableLocationBrowseButton>true</EnableLocationBrowseButton>
<Icon>fsapp.ico</Icon>
</TemplateData>
<TemplateContent>
<ProjectCollection>
<ProjectTemplateLink
ProjectName="Project1">
Hrmate\business\Source\sub1\TestTemplate\prj1\MyTemplate.vstemplate</ProjectTemplateLink>
<ProjectTemplateLink
ProjectName="Project2">
Hrmate\business\Source\sub1\TestTemplate\prj2\MyTemplate.vstemplate</ProjectTemplateLink>
<ProjectTemplateLink
ProjectName="Project3">
Hrmate\business\Source\sub1\TestTemplate\prj3\MyTemplate.vstemplate</ProjectTemplateLink>
</ProjectTemplateLink>
<ProjectTemplateLink
ProjectName="Project4">
Hrmate\business\Source\sub1\TestTemplate\prj4\MyTemplate.vstemplate</ProjectTemplateLink>
</ProjectTemplateLink>
</ProjectCollection>
</TemplateContent>
</VSTemplate>

Hope it is understandable,

tell me if there is any soln of this or I use GAT

Thanks

Hi Monesh,

I never used such an embeddingfolder structure so I'm not sure if this will work out of the box.

This is not really related to GAT and there is nothing in GAT that will allow you to use a folder structure that may not be supported by VS.

So, I would recommend you to post your question to the VS extensibility forum where VS team members hang around and you should ask them if VS will properly unfold such a project structure.

Sorry I can't be of more help regarding this one,

thanks,
