if I change web.config after deployment do I have to recompile the project

  • Hi

    I've used the deployment wizard to create an msi file.

    If I change the web.config or an aspx.vb file after I've installed the project do I have to recompile or do anything after I change the source.

    If so how do I recompile or whatever

    Thanks for any help

  • if you change a .config file or .aspx, no recompilation is needed. if you change a .vb file, then yess you have to recompile.

  • David,

    If you ar using the Visual Studio IDE, all you have to do to recompile your project following a change is to run it.  The environment will take care of the rest.  Just remember to select the appropriate release.  Either Debug or Release, depending on your requirement.

     

    The other way to compile your project is to click on the build option in the menu bar and select Build <projectname>.

     

    The other thing to remember is that once the project is deployed you do not necessarily have to uninstall and reinstall.  If your change was a simple syntax change in one of the source files, you can generally just overwrite the old app with the new one and it will work fine.

     

    regards
