Creating an item template in Visual Studio 2012 with multiple non-file attachments

I am looking to create a new Visual Studio 2012 element template that generates five files, three of which are attached, which is not the case. It should look like this:

MyView1.View MyView1.view.cs MyView1.data.cs MyView1.gen.cs MyView1.js

(The reason I need a separate JavaScript file is due to the problem of using it as a built-in resource for dynamic output for parsing at runtime.)

This is the template file I came up with so far:

 <VSTemplate Version="2.0.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/vstemplate/2005" Type="Item"> <TemplateData> <DefaultName>MyView.view</DefaultName> <Name>MVC Desktop View - Integration Test</Name> <Description>A view in a MVC-based desktop web application for use in integration tests.</Description> <ProjectType>CSharp</ProjectType> <SortOrder>10</SortOrder> <Icon>__TemplateIcon.ico</Icon> <NumberOfParentCategoriesToRollUp>1</NumberOfParentCategoriesToRollUp> </TemplateData> <TemplateContent> <ProjectItem TargetFileName="$fileinputname$.view" ReplaceParameters="true">Template.view</ProjectItem> <ProjectItem SubType="Code" TargetFileName="$fileinputname$.view.cs" ReplaceParameters="true">Template.view.cs</ProjectItem> <ProjectItem SubType="Code" TargetFileName="$fileinputname$.data.cs" ReplaceParameters="true">Template.data.cs</ProjectItem> <ProjectItem SubType="Code" TargetFileName="$fileinputname$.gen.cs" ReplaceParameters="true">Template.gen.cs</ProjectItem> <ProjectItem TargetFileName="$fileinputname$.js" ReplaceParameters="true" ItemType="Embedded Resource">Template.js</ProjectItem> </TemplateContent> <WizardExtension> <Assembly>VisualStudio.TemplateWizards, Version=1.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=87390d63f27c23a4</Assembly> <FullClassName>VisualStudio.TemplateWizards.ViewItemTemplateWizard</FullClassName> </WizardExtension>

The problem is that the JavaScript file is nested under the .View file, and I cannot find a way around this. I ideally want this to be the only element template that has been added (and should not use two separate element templates).

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Everything works for me, I just need to polish this last piece.

I finally decided this. It turns out that when adding ItemType as an attribute to the file, you cannot use the item type name as shown in the drop-down list (according to this post: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vsx/ thread / 3f6788cd-634b-42e5-ba63-b6dc52af71f9 ). Changing this line (without spaces between Embedded and Resource) solves the problem:

 <ProjectItem TargetFileName="$fileinputname$.js" ReplaceParameters="true" ItemType="EmbeddedResource">Template.js</ProjectItem>
