Working in VS 2022
When creating a template using the new template engine I can create Parameters with a datatype of choice. In the eventual templates these are shown as a dropdown.
Currently in my template.json I have the following
"LoggingFramework": {
"type": "parameter",
"datatype": "choice",
"defaultValue": "Serilog",
"Choices": [
{
"choice": "Serilog",
"description": "Adds the Serilog logging framework to the project"
},
{
"choice": "Nlog",
"description": "Adds the Nlog logging framework to the project"
}
],
"replaces": "Nlog"
}
In theory I should then be able to use a conditional in the actual template along these lines
#if (LoggingFramework == "Serilog")
//something here
#endif
That always seems to give me an Invalid pre processor error.
Most of the samples of pre processor conditionals do appear to assume that the conditional is a boolean, If that is indeed the case is there a way to set another boolean parameter in the template.json which uses the value from the choice parameter?
