ABSTRACT
Many developers are familiar with CodeSmith, Eric Smith's template-based code generation engine that has become extremely popular in the last several years. It's a great way to stamp out boilerplate code, and it has templates for many popular frameworks. In this working session - which will be very light on PowerPoint - we'll take a walk through automating code generation usingCodeSmith's API. Starting with an EntityMap, we'll build several layers of a real application (no Northwind stuff here), from stored procedures to DALs to base Business Objects. We'll also take a look at incorporating this into an automated/daily build. Code that writes code - there's nothing like it!
