Application generator based on parameterized templates

This paper presents a proprietary application generator that generates the source code based on code templates and on user-defined parameters applied to these templates. The generator is designed to generate source code written in different languages and for different types of applications. The underlying data model and structure of the templates are presented. The operating principles of the tool are explained on some simple template examples written in XML and on the VB.NET source code generated by the templates. Usage of the tool is briefly described at the end of the article
