           Code Generation Steps using Sitecore Rocks<\/h2>\n

           For Code generation using Sitecore Rocks the steps are:<\/p>\n

           \n
           1. Setup the Sitecore site using .exe installer or Siteroot zip – available from Sitecore SDN<\/a>.<\/li>\n
           2. Setup Sitecore site in Visual studio solution – Creating .sln file.<\/li>\n
           3. Install Sitecore Rocks (if not already installed).<\/span><\/li>\n
           4. Connect the Visual studio solution with Sitecore site using Hard Rock web service exposed by Sitecore.<\/li>\n
           5. Create new StronglyTypedItems\u00a0file in Sitecore visual studio solution, extension will be .scx, with appropriate\u00a0name – for example “CodeGenerationFile.scx”.<\/span><\/li>\n
           6. Right-click on created file “CodeGenerationFile.scx” and execute the command ‘Run Custom Tool’ for\u00a0code generation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
