How to Obtain Text Template Transformation Toolkit

Question

I've setup a new laptop and have download (via SVN) some large projects related to my work.

I'm now getting a bunch of errors similar to the following.

Error 5 The imported project "C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v11.0\TextTemplating\Microsoft.TextTemplating.targets" was not found. Confirm that the path in the declaration is correct, and that the file exists on disk.

Can anyone help me understand what happened? While Googling, I found several references to "Text Template Transformation Toolkit". Is that a separate download? I was not able to find it.

I just installed a fresh copy of Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate. Can anyone see what I'm missing?

Answer 1

The file referenced is the additional msbuild support for T4, which is included in the Visualization and Modeling SDK. You'll first need the Visual Studio 2012 SDK, then the VSVM SDK itself.
