This adds the missing functionality to evaluate Item Metadata from
T4Transform
andT4Preprocess
inT4.BuildTools
.Furthermore, the
T4Preprocess
items have their namespace calculated automatically from their relative path; thereby mimicking the behavior of the legacy T4 external tool of Visual Studio.Also a bug has been fixed when a template itself defines the output extension via
<#@ output extension=".whatever" #>
.This fixes the following open Issues:
The automatic namespace calculation may fix #183, although OP requests an explicit override; this could be resolved with further Item Metadata. I'm happy to implement this if required.
