The five template are :-
1) Silverlight Client Access Policy File:-
This templates adds a file named clientaccesspolicy.xml in the root folder of the Silverlight project.Silverlight 4 supports two different mechanisms for services to enable cross-domain access clientaccesspolicy.xml or crossdomain.xml file. This file need to be at the root of the domain where the service is hosted, I tend to use clientaccesspolicy.xml file because it provides more granular control over allowed domains and can also be used to set configuration for Sockets.A very good explanation can be found here http://www.devtoolshed.com/explanation-cross-domain-and-client-access-policy-files-silverlight
Either way, when you are done the policy file needs to go in the ROOT of the domain. This is important as it is not the application root, but the root web. Even if your app is located at foo.com/myapp, the policy file needs to be at foo.com/clientaccesspolicy.xml.
2) Value Converter:-
This templates adds a file for converter.
3) C# Trigger Template for Silverlight:-
This templates adds a file for trigger.
4) C# Behavior Template for Silverlight:-
This templates adds a file for behavior.
5) C# Action Template for Silverlight:-
This templates adds a file for action.
How to get the templates ?
Open Visual Studio, open an existing silverlight project or create new one.
Right click on the Silverlight Project –> Add -> New Item ->(left side) select Online Templates -> Silverlight
Organizing the templates
This templates will create files and place them under the root folder. What I do is usually create folders in the silverlight project named as behaviors,triggers,actions,converters. How this helps? eventually and gradually when the projects files increase its easy to locate code-files and manage them effectively.
Code Snippets
I know there are code snippets available for the same, I like the templates because a single click will generate the file with basic code and it opens the popular open-file dialog where you can name the file.
