Open source code generation tools for asp.net?

[jcaulder]

Just wondering if anyone knows of a good open source code generation tool for asp.net?

I was reviewing Iron Speed which has a limited free version which appears pretty good.

Also, anyone got any strong feelings one way or the other about using code gen tools in general? I have always been somewhat hesitant to use these tools because my experience has been they get you just far enough to get you lost or either you spend days trying to figure out what the tool did so you can change some simple behavior.

TIA for any suggestions/thoughts!

MyGeneration has alot of different templates. I used to like code generation tools. I don't use them as much anymore.

I do use some niche code generation tools. like NHQG (nhibernate query generator). for the most part though I code my domain model by hand.
