Hello Forum:

The video tutorials are starting to make more sense, so I thought I should look at this CodeSmith thingee.

I found the templates in the MojoPortal tree. Then I installed the latest CodeSmith 7.0.1.

When I open the mp_Table_ToGridView.cst in the CodeSmith Generator Studio, I get a whole bunch of errors (before even doing a "generate") like:

';' expected in File qirnu3m1.cs

I cannot find this file anywhere.

This causes me to ask the Subject question:

Is the latest CodeSmith Generator version compatible with MP?

Thanks in advance.

Regards..

OK Joe:

I contacted CodeSmith support and I sent them that template. They debugged it and returned to me an updated template with the following response:

-----------------------

I've attached an updated template. The reason you were seeing this behavior is because lines 130-138 were doing this: <% ResourceFileNameSpace %> instead of <%= ResourceFileNameSpace %>. The <% means that the template will treat it as a code block and not an expression the <%= is a write block and treats the content as an expression.

Please let us know if you have any questions or feedback.

-----------------------

I cannot find a way to send this to you (using the forums or the contact link).

Also I can imagine that you can fix this behavior directly. Let me know if you want me to send the template they modified.

I loaded it into the CodeSmith studio thingee, and it loads correctly and generates with no errors.

Also I loaded almost all of the other templates (save for the postgresql_* and Firebird_* ones) and they seem to load OK.

Regards..
