GlobalParams

What is it?

An assembly that defines an implementation of the IWizard interface which provides all templates in a multi-project template with access to the parameters of the top level template.

How to use it?

  1. Ensure that the GlobalParams assembly is deployed to the GAC on any system that will use the template
  2. Modify all of the .vstemplate files in the multi-project template to include the WizardExtension element from this example
<VSTemplate Type="Project" Version="3.0.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/vstemplate/2005">
  
  <WizardExtension>
    <Assembly>GlobalParams, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=ea5a5299819fb7c0</Assembly>
    <FullClassName>GlobalParams.WizardMPT</FullClassName>
  </WizardExtension>
</VSTemplate>

How to use it with custom UI?

  1. Ensure that the GlobalParams assembly is deployed to the GAC on any system that will use the template

  2. Create a project that will define the wizard implementation

  3. Add a reference to the GlobalParams assembly

  4. Create a class and have it derive from GlobalParams.WizardMPT

  5. Override the OnBeforeRunStarted method

    1. Invoke the custom UI component
    2. Return true if the top level template parameters need to be accessible to all templates or false if they do not.
  6. Modify all of the .vstemplate files in the multi-project template to include a WizardExtension element that points to your wizard assembly and class.
