 | Component Project Templates |
In addition to the help file builder project templates, component project templates are provided to create custom build components, plug-ins, syntax generators, and presentation styles. Templates are provided for C# and VB.NET. The templates appear in the given language categories in the Documentation subcategory.
The following component project templates are available:
Sandcastle Help File Builder Plug-In - Create a build process plug-in used to extend or alter the help file builder build process.
BuildAssembler Build Component - Create a build component for use with the BuildAssembler tool that can alter the topics in some way as they are being generated.
BuildAssembler Syntax Generator - Create a syntax generator for use with the BuildAssembler SyntaxComponent used to create declaration or usage syntax sections within topics.
Sandcastle Presentation Style Component - Create a presentation style component to add a new presentation style used to format the topics. This template provides a shell into which you can copy the content files from an existing presentation style or start from scratch and add all new content.
Once the project has been created, see the comments in the template source code file for things to do to implement the given component.
