Pass object to template

[Starina123]

Are there any examples of using T4?

I want to pass an object from my application to a template.

Tell me, please, how can I do this?

Is this in any way different from how you'd use the classic t4?

You should be able to instantiate and write code in a t4 template.

Are you hosting the engine or using preprocessed templates?

I tried to use hosting the engine, but i have little experience.

I would recommend using a session:

var session = generator.GetOrCreateSession ();
session["MyParam"] = paramVal;

If your template is set to be host specific, then parameters declared using a parameter directive will automatically access values from the session.

<#@ template hostspecific="true" #>
<#@ parameter name='MyParam' #>
MyParam value is <#=MyParam#>
