    copied!<p>I coded a project that takes your database tables - which you choose and build C# classes related to tables' columns. Like, filter, query etc. </p> <p>It totally works, I can generate 6 different classes with full functionality - depends on my needs - for a table with one click. T4 really rocks!</p> <p>But, I want to create a new project for these classes. As you understood, it was not my ultimate aim to just create these files.</p> <p>Now, I am trying to generate a new project/solution for these classes programmatically. </p> <p>I read different questions related to this issue, but that wasn't enough for me. For example, <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8790528/create-a-visual-studio-project-programmatically">Create a Visual Studio project programmatically</a> is close to my issue, but it didn't satisfy me. I couldn't find how to choose the type of new project.</p> <p>I looked at <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2736260/programmatically-generate-visual-studio-solution">Programmatically generate Visual Studio Solution</a> but I couldn't find a way to give new solution to my generated classes. Also I looked at <a href="http://treesurgeon.codeplex.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Tree Surgeon</a>. It didn't satisfy me. After installing it, I saw that it was designed to at most Visual Studio 2008 and it just takes the project name from the user. So, Tree Surgeon was not a solution for this problem. </p> <p>What I need is, to learn how to code a new project's structure and create it programmatically. After finding the answer, I'm planning to have a project such that, when you write your new project name, database name(s), table name(s) and which type of classes you need in your browser,then both T4 and C# will works for you and ta-da! You will have a new project that has controller, helpers and in there new classes.</p> <p>Is it possible? </p>
