Same question as Jason, how can we change the template to work like other EF templates where it is re-run whenever the EDMX is saved?

Is there a way to "run custom tool" from a pre-build event or change the tt to work like other EF tt files where every time you save the edmx file it automatically re-runs this template?

Startup still seems to be slow. What can I look at to see if the generated views are actually being used?

Setting the generated class' visibility to internal is a workaround to hide the class from sgen.exe. An option for EntityViewGenerator to control the class' visibility would be even better.

When used in an assembly which is then sent to sgen.exe to generate a XmlSerializer assembly, this error occurs in the generated class' instance constructor : "The property or indexer 'System.Data.Mapping.EntityViewContainer.ViewCount' cannot be used in this context because the set accessor is inaccessible"

Can we download and use the template freely without causing any license issue?

@Terry yes. Just ran against VS2010 .NET 4.0, my ViewCount = 454! Works great.

Do these templates still work in .NET 4.0? Visual Studio 2010?

Why the view file generated always has a 1 appended like MyModel.Views1.cs?

Brian Kuhn, Daniel:

the template contain an error in msdl namespace, change this line

XNamespace mslns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:windows:storage:mapping:CS";

for this

XNamespace mslns = "schemas.microsoft.com/.../cs";
