I just pushed T4MVC out to the MvcContrib CodePlex site.  You can go to the T4MVC Home Page to get started with it. Last time I blogged about a T4MVC release was for 2.6.13.  In the mean time, I released 2.6.14 and 2.6.15, but they were minor updates so I just tweeted them.  You can check...

Just a quick post to point folks to a very cool CodePlex Add-In that you may not know about.  It’s called Chirpy and can be downloaded from http://chirpy.codeplex.com/ .  The reason I discovered it is that it includes functionality to automatically run T4MVC.  In fact, it is basically...

Last week, I blogged about a nice way of auto-running T4MVC by using the Macro IDE to write an OnBuildBegin event handler .  This was a big improvement over the hacky ‘AlwaysKeepTemplateDirty’ flag that we’ve been using since T4MVC’s early days. Since then, Wayne Brantley has taken this idea to...

Update: also see the newer post on this topic   T4MVC has always struggled with finding the right way of running automatically when you build.  Being a T4 template in your project, by default it just runs when you save it.  This is not great, because you really want it to rerun whenever...

To get the latest build of T4MVC: Go to MvcContrib T4MVC page on CodePlex   A few weeks back, we announced (mostly on Twitter) that T4MVC was moving into the MvcContrib Codeplex project.  I didn’t say much about it at the time because there wasn’t a whole lot to say yet, in the sense that the...

To get the latest build of T4MVC: Go to T4MVC page on CodePlex I just posted build 2.6.10. There were also a few builds in between since I last blogged about 2.6, so this post describes some of those changes (full history here ). Fluent route value API As you probably know, T4MVC uses a pattern...

To get the latest build of T4MVC: Go to T4MVC page on CodePlex One of MVC 2's major new features is the support for breaking up a large application into "Areas". This works by following a structure that looks like: Root folder Models Views Controllers Areas NerdDinner...

Up until now, most things related to T4MVC were happening through my various blog posts about it.  And while that was sort of working ok for a while, it was also less than ideal for a couple reasons. First, there was no single place to go to in order to get information about it.  You’d basically...

To get the latest build of T4MVC: Go to T4MVC page on CodePlex MVC 2 Beta introduces two nice helpers called Html.RenderAction and Html.Action. Phil Haack described them in detail on his blog , so you may want to read through that before reading this post. Basically, they’re two additional methods...

To get the latest build of T4MVC: Go to T4MVC page on CodePlex T4MVC build 2.5.00 brings a couple of fun new features that I’ll describe in this post. I can’t take too much credit for them as they came from users who suggested them to me, and helped out getting the code going. Support for multiple...

To get the latest build of T4MVC: Go to T4MVC page on CodePlex Though I haven’t blogged for a while about T4MVC, I’ve been making a few minor updates and only sent notification via Twitter. Now, I have a few things that are worth discussing in a little more detail. Note that you can see the complete...

While working on T4MVC , I ran into a very tricky C# compiler behavior that I thought I’d share.  T4MVC creates various overloads that allow you to avoid literal strings.  One such case is that you can replace: routes.MapRoute( "UpcomingDinners", "Dinners/Page/{page}"...

Short version : the MVC T4 template (now named T4MVC) is now available on CodePlex, as one of the downloads in the ASP.NET MVC v1.0 Source page . Go to T4MVC home page Poll verdict: it’s ok for T4MVC to make small changes Yesterday, I posted asking how people felt about having the template modify...

Update : Please see this post for what came out of this ‘poll’, and for a pointer to the newest T4 template on CodePlex. When working on my MVC T4 template , I was not able to use reflection to discover the Controllers and Actions, because the code that the template generates is itself in the same...

Update : Please read this post for the newest and greatest. A couple weeks ago, I blogged about using a Build provider and CodeDom to generate strongly typed MVC helpers at runtime. I followed up a few days later with another version that used T4 templates instead, making it easier to customize. ...
