如何将功能添加到Web模板

Question

我在我的项目中创建了一个Web模板。我已经创建了一个功能，并添加了事件接收器，其中我已添加代码以创建自定义列表。现在我想将此功能添加到Web模板。我如何添加这个？我只是转到功能文件系统文件夹并复制Visual Studio SharePoint功能文件并粘贴到Web模板文件系统文件夹。是正确的方式吗？但我想知道，我还应该复制.xml和eventReceiver.cs文件的功能？或只有SharePoint功能文件足够？

</Elements>

Your project structure should look something like this,

I personally use WSP Builder which does the job for me, but if you don't know how to do it by yourself then I won't recommend yu using WSP builder straight away.
