Symphony CollectionFromFileWithMethods v3 2

Template file name Symphony_CollectionFromFileWithMethods_v3_2.tpl

The Symphony_CollectionFromFileWithMethods (version 3.2) generates a collection class and the associated code to populate the collection from a data file. The created class is a populated collection of Symphony.Conductor.Content.SelectionItem. Each collection item contains a ItemValue (or ItemStringValue for alpha based collections) and Description. In addition it provides a method (SelectMethod()) that returns the complete collection.

The ItemValue/ItemStringValue property can be data-bound to the SelectedValuePath of a ComboBox/drop-down list. The Description is the element displayed (DisplayMemeberPath for a WPF ComboBox) within the visible list.

It is recommended that your generated code from the Symphony_CollectionWithMethods template is created into a project sub-folder called Content.
