T4 (*.tt) Turn off default autogen file

Hi,

i wrote a tt-file that generates multiple cs files, that are added to my project. The name of the file is "Mappings.tt". The names of the generates files are user.cs, customer.cs and so on. But by default there is a Mappings.cs generated from the tt-file. This is the auto generated one. Is there a way to turn this autogenerated file off?

Assuming you have .tt file in your project, there is no way to avoid creation of the default output file. It is actually produced by Visual Studio for the custom tool T4 provides.

Hi Nic,

You can remove the custom tool from the properties of your file. Of course that you will loose the automatically transformation.
