Leverage "Optional" functionality while generating multiple resource type names #77

Closed lucafabbri365 closed 7 months ago

Tool version v4.0.0

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Optional or excluded components are required during the filling of fields (Generate section), when the Generate Multiple Resource Type Names option is selected. The names of excluded components do not appear in the generated names, ALWAYS. It may happen instead that the name of a component sometimes needs to be included, while at other times it should be omitted in generated names. So, it would be useful to extend the usage of 'optional' component when the Generate Multiple Resource Type Names option is selected.

Regards, Luca

Hi Luca,

This is already part of our backlog, the current tool design makes implementation difficult. We will continue to evaluate this capability for future releases.
