Generate c# solution template

I want to create a VS2010 c# solution template generator and I'm looking for free/open tools to achieve this.

An example of what I'm trying to do is a winform application takes project name, namespace and database connectionstring and produce a c# customized solution with my custom classes, namespace and references.

I found those:

• EnvDTE
• Code Generatio开发者_如何转开发n and T4 Text Templates

Is this the right way to do this? Do you know better tools?

You need to look at project templates. Normally you only get prompted for a project name (used as the solution name as well if creating a solution at the same time).

However the project template system can run code (as seen with C++ and ASP.NET MVC Projects).

There is a lot of information in the VS SDK, but you might find examining project templates that launch wizards useful to isolate the useful bits of documentation.
