Additional customization when creating a new DQMH Module Template

Status: Released

When developing a DQMH Module Template, the meta data XML file that goes along with the module template library defines various aspects of the module. Currently, the only user-configurable parts of the XML file are the module description, and where you want to store the template on disk.

 

I propose there be more items you can configure for a DQMH Module Template when creating it. My current ideas are:

 

1. Name of the virtual folder in the target project to place the module tester

2. Name of the virtual folder in the target project to place the module library

3. Alternate path (other than "Libraries") to store the new module library on disk relative to the target project.

 

For example, I have a DQMH module template for creating a test for my test framework. I want its tester to go in a 'Test Testers' virtual folder in my project, I want its library to go in a 'Test Libraries' virtual folder in my project, and I want the module to be saved in a 'Tests' folder that sits next to my project. It would be nice if all of these things could be not only specified in the UI of the Add New DQMH Module dialog, but default values for each of them could be defined in the module template meta data XML as well.
