As per the settings defined the following will be expected output when earlybound.bat is run:

  • A single file name SbmaEarlyBoundTypes.cs containing definitions for entities specified
  • Namespace for the various classes will be SBMA.Crm.Entities
  • One *.cs file will be generated for every entity because of the setting “oneTypePerFile : true”, this can be set to false if the preference is work with only one *.cs file for all the entity type definitions

Right Click on the spkl folder and bring up the command prompt (if using VS 2019  install the extension Web Essentials 2019 so the command prompt can be launched from Visual Studio IDE)
