TransformOnBuild not working #38

Closed ericbrunner closed 8 years ago

ericbrunner commented 8 years ago

Hi,

I tried to let the T4 transformation happen on a Build or Rebuild from within VS2015 Community SP3 but the transformation didn't execute as expected. I made a sample project utilizing the www.reversepoco.com Tool for EF Code First from Database. The included .tt file should be transformed on every new Build or Rebuild but as mentioned something went wrong. Could you please take a look at the sample and let me know what is going wrong?

You need to look at the T4 source. It may have been designed to only be run from within the IDE.

A detailed msbuild log will show you if/when the transforms are being invoked.

Thank you for your reply. That .tt relies on DTE and can't be transformed outside VS. I currently got that information from the reversePoco creator. So it is no issue on your side.
