Arquivos de metadados de modelo do Visual Studio
Each template includes a .vstemplate file with the metadata that provides Visual Studio with the information required to display the template in the New Project and Add New Item dialog boxes and create a project or item from the template.
Structure of a .vstemplate File
The .vstemplate file for project templates consists of three fundamental elements:
VSTemplate Identifies the template as a project or item template and provides the template version number.
TemplateData Categorizes the project template and defines display characteristics for the New Project or Add New Item dialog box.
TemplateContent Specifies the files included in the template.
For example, the following code represents a skeleton .vstemplate file for a project template.
<VSTemplate Type="Project" Version="2.0.0"
xmlns="https://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/vstemplate/2005">
<TemplateData>
...
</TemplateData>
<TemplateContent>
...
</TemplateContent>
</VSTemplate>
Template metadata files are validated by an XML schema that is included with Visual Studio. Para obter mais informações sobre o esquema XML do modelo, consulte Referência de esquema de modelo do Studio Visual.
Advanced Elements
In addition to the fundamental template XML elements, you can use the WizardExtension and WizardData elements to add custom functionality to the template wizard that creates a new project or item from the template. This custom functionality is achieved by creating an assembly that implements the IWizard interface, and registering that assembly in the .vstemplate file. For more information, see Como: Usar assistentes com modelos de projeto.
Basic Project Template .vstemplate file
The following example shows a custom template for a Visual C# project.
<VSTemplate Type="Project" Version="2.0.0"
xmlns="https://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/vstemplate/2005">
<TemplateData>
<Name>My template</Name>
<Description>A basic template.</Description>
<Icon>TemplateIcon.ico</Icon>
<ProjectType>CSharp</ProjectType>
</TemplateData>
<TemplateContent>
<Project File="MyTemplate.csproj">
<ProjectItem>Form1.cs<ProjectItem>
<ProjectItem>Form1.Designer.cs</ProjectItem>
<ProjectItem>Properties\AssemblyInfo.cs</ProjectItem>
<ProjectItem>Properties\Resources.resx</ProjectItem>
<ProjectItem>Properties\Resources.Designer.cs</ProjectItem>
<ProjectItem>Properties\Settings.settings</ProjectItem>
<ProjectItem>Properties\Settings.Designer.cs</ProjectItem>
</Project>
</TemplateContent>
</VSTemplate>
