Changing a generation template in a TDK 3G model (TDK)
This topic provides information for customizing a TDK 3G model. TDK 3G models were previously provided for generating the ACS Code Generator DLLs, but now TDK code generation transformation patterns modes are used.
* 
Some provided TDK Code Generation Transformation Patterns models make use of TDK 3G generation templates. Tell me more...
Do not change any Operations contained within the Generator, Support or TDK Generator Framework packages - if you do so, your changes will be lost should you update the TDK Code Generation Transformation Patterns model with improvements provided in a future release of Modeler.
To change a generation template in a TDK 3G model:
1. In Modeler, create a new ACS Code Generator DLL in the TDK 3G model. How?
2. If you want to change an inherited generation template, create a clone of the appropriate Operation on your GenClass class, and change that generation template as necessary.
3. Open the Property Pages of the Operation that represents the generation template you want to change.
4. Open the appropriate Class Diagram, and locate the generation template (Operation) you want to customize.
5. Click the Body tab.
6. Change the generation template text as appropriate.
