I have a application that generates a couple of different mails. These mails are currently build up using a string builder that generates a HTML based string that is the mail content.
This approach is getting messy. The code is objects mixed with HTML, etc, etc. What I’d like is to have a template similar to the one used in for example MVC and then use the output of this template to add to the mail.
Can this be done using for example T4 add how wound that work or should I use another approach for this?
The templates don’t have to be editable at runtime even if that would be nice.
It can be done with T4. It would work exactly the way it does in MVC.
You should consider getting the Clarius T4 Editor, as Visual Studio does not come with intellisense for T4 out of the box, and the Clarius T4 editor can provide that.
