T4MVC controller generated files not updating for newly added controller

Question

I added T4MVC into my application and it generated all necessary files for the controllers. However when i try to add a new controller into my application, but I dont see the controller.generated file for this newly added controller into the application.

Am I missing something or is it a limitation of T4MVC? Can anyone help me on this?

There are several options to cause the generation to happen:

• it happens whenever you save the t4mvc.tt file
• you can right click t4mvc.tt and choose Run Custom Tool
• You can use Chirpy (http://chirpy.codeplex.com/), which can make T4MVC generation automatic.
