I am using sidewaffle TemplateBuilder to create a multi project solution. In one of my projects i have a GUID i would like to change during _preprocess generating a new GUID in its place. Something like:

 add key="base(new
 Guid("{34BC9328-FC0D-4960-83B2-612B13DE1514}"))"
 value="base(new Guid("MYNEWGUIDHERE"))"/>

How can this be done?

Of course, after posting this question, with some new angles and testing. I found the answer. It is easier than one would think.

There are mechanisms for doing this built in to template generation. More info on them check here Template Parameters.

But in short you can use $guid1$ to $guid10$ getting up to 10 unique GUID's. It would look like this in my _preprocess file:

 <add key="base(new Guid(&quot;{34BC9328-FC0D-4960-83B2-612B13DE1514}&quot;))" value="base(new Guid(&quot;$guid1$&quot;))"/>

It is as simple as that :)
