generating source in a single file

[William McKenzie]

does anyone know of a way to use the source code templates such that they generate a single file per package instead of per class? I kind of fake it by using a class with a bunch of Inner Classes and generating the source code for it. But there are a bunch of disadvantages to that.

Hi William,

I've also tried this once and there seems not other way as you have described. I used a class element as a (stereotyped) pseudo package and placed all classes to appear in a single file there as nested elements (this was for implementation of an own code generation language).

I try T4 template to generate single output file per template but again there are certain disadvantages with it like this process forces developer to generate all the code in a single file or create additional template.
