What is purpuse of T4 Generator in T4toolbox
- by Fred Yang
I am using T4toolbox, I am confused what the generator is for. I can run the following
public class Generator1 : Generator
{
protected override void RunCore()
{
Template1 t = new Template1();
t.Output.File = "t3.txt";
t.Render();
}
}
or I can run t4 script directly like the following.
Template1 t = new Template1();
t.Output.File = "t3.txt";
t.Render();
But I can do the same using t4 script without generator as well.
So I mean can do the same thing with two approach "script -- generator -- template" and "script -- template", am I missing something?
Thanks
