Description

VSTemplate

Required element.

Contains all the metadata for the project template, item template, or starter kit.

Text Value

A text value is optional.

This text specifies the custom XML to pass to the custom wizard extension specified in the WizardExtension element.

Remarks

Any XML can be specified in this element. The XML will be passed as a parameter to the custom wizard extension, allowing the extension to use the contents of this element. No validation is done on this data.

The contents of the WizardData element are passed, unchanged, as a parameter inside the string dictionary of parameters in the IWizard.RunStarted method. The parameter is named $WizardData$.

Example

The following example illustrates the metadata for the standard project template for a Visual C# Windows application.
