ASP.NET MVC has a bunch of custom item templates to create controllers, views, etc. Those item templates appear to only show up in the Add New Item dialog box when you are inside an ASP.NET MVC project (or more specifically when the MVC project type guid is in the .csproj file). How do they manage to do this? I’ve looked through the .vstemplate files and there doesn’t appear to be anything related to the project type guid.
Thanks,
Nathan
I believe I figured it out. It looks like the TemplateGroupID node in the .vstemplate file specifies the name of the VS Project (as read from the registry) to show this template for.
