Overview

iisTypeGen generates a strongly typed class from the IIS7 schema. This utility was based on a tool that Kanwaljeet Singla blogged about a while back. I found that I wanted a little more control over what the generated types looked like, so I decided to leverage Kanwal's schema parser (slightly modified) and wrap my head around System.CodeDom to see what I could come up with.

Features

    * Create types in C# or VB. NET
    * Generate "merged" types based on multiple schema files containing the same section path
    * Automatically defined regions for sections, collections, elements, and enums
    * Eliminates unnecessary duplicate types within the namespace

Benefits

Allows one to use strongly typed classes when using Microsoft.Web.Administration namespace.

Requirements

.NET 2.0 Framework & IIS7
