Private Methods

Method	Description
IVsSingleFileGenerator ( string &pbstrDefaultExtension ) : int	Implements the IVsSingleFileGenerator.DefaultExtension method. Returns the extension of the generated file
IVsSingleFileGenerator ( string wszInputFilePath, string bstrInputFileContents, string wszDefaultNamespace, IntPtr rgbOutputFileContents, uint &pcbOutput, IVsGeneratorProgress pGenerateProgress ) : int	Implements the IVsSingleFileGenerator.Generate method. Executes the transformation and returns the newly generated output file, whenever a custom tool is loaded, or the input file is saved
