Title
Body
It's been a while since I last used T4 and this is probably a silly question... Is it possible to reference an arbitrary assembly from a template? Example: I have a class that I'd like to use in Project X Project X.Test references X and contains the .tt file I assume the following should work <#@ assembly name="X" #> But I get the following error on save: Compiling transformation: Metadata file 'X' could not be found What am I doing wrong? (In case anyone's interested: I'm trying to automatically generate a particular type of tests based on some metadata that I get from X) Update: it looks like VS2010 has broken the assembly resolution behavior that I was expecting. From Link : T4's assembly set is completely separated from the containing project's assembly set to avoid picking up the wrong assemblies when a project targets previous framework versions. Project assemblies are no longer used to resolve template assembly directives. Are there any workarounds, besides using absolute paths?
