Template Generator

This project is a graphical wizard that helps users to generate code template files to develop new charon modules. Users may enter the names, types and documentation of their input/output slots and parameters. This information is used to set up the code template files. With its support to generate CMake project files, compiling the generated module is done really fast. With this wizard, creating new modules becomes a very-few-minute task.
