Visual Studio :: Code Behind File Controls Not Defined/recognized When Using WSPbuilder?
Oct 14, 2010
I am in the process of adding my custom aspx pages to the LAYOUTS folder(a folder I created) in a WSPbuilder solution in VS08. The problem I am having is when I build the solution it fails because the controls(Load, Textboxes, dropdown lists,etc) in the code behind file for the custom aspx pages say they are not defined. They all have a blue squiggly line and I get over 100 errors.what to do to get the WSP to recognize the code behind pages.
I have a little asp.net, c# web app created in visual studio. It runs fine on my local machine out of IIS and, of course, it runs fine on the server provided with visual studio.
I copied the files over to a couple of hosting servers I use and it wouldn't run on either of them: the web page could not be seen at all.
Eventually one the hosting providers has come back with an answer and this is it:
ASP.net was not activated for your account, so that's why nothing asp.net would run. We've activated it now but there are still some configuration issues with your /home/www/brassrazoo.org/visstudwebapp/Web.config - line 38: The section <authentication> can't be defined in this configuration file (the allowed definition context is 'MachineToApplication').
Apparently they've now 'activated asp for my account' but it has made no difference whatever to what happens. I just get an error:
I just installed the release version of Visual Studio 2010, and it looks like there's something wrong with the standard ASP.NET server controls. When I create a basic server control, such as a TextBox, the editor underlines it in green and says (I also get no intellisense for ASP.NET controls): Element 'TextBox' is not a known element. This can occur if there is a compilation error in the Web site, or the Web.config file is missing. The web site builds fine, and the Web.config file is not missing:
I downloaded iTracker to get started doing some web development with ASP.NET. I don't understand why in the code behind file, the standard web controls are not recognized.
I'm missing a the code browser when I create pages that have the code not placed in a seperate file. For pages with .asp.vb files I get the browser correctly.
I think it's called a code browser but just in case it's not I mean the dropdown that shows Page Events, Buttons and other controls that can be selected along with their events.
How do I turn on those dropdowns for pages with code behind that uses <script> tags in the actual .aspx page?
Included (Showing page events just under the tab):
In some of my new websites under .NET 4.0 my Visual Studio does not recognize System.Linq as a valid class. I need to add a reference to System.Core in Web.Config to solve this but there are projects where this is not needed.
I have an ObjectDataSource in Visual Studio 2008. I have a DataSet defined with a TableAdapter. However, when I go to select the Table Adapter to use in the ObjectDataSource, nothing shows up. I double checked that the DataSet is in fact in the App_Code folder. I do not know what else to try. The following code is the ASP code for that ObjectDataSource:
In an ASP.NET web application using C#, when we double click on design it will go to code behind page (cs file), but problem here is, when we double click on design its going to script of source file. Why it is happening?
This question has probably been answered before, when adding a new web form, I do not see an option that allows you to place code in a seperate file for a project (it does it automatically). But for websites, I see the option. Am I missing some option?
what's up with the new 2010 version of VWDExpress? It seems it no longer creates the VB code behind file to go along with the markup pages. Is threre a setting somewhere that I've missed? Or is code behind no longer supported?
I have a page with a Textbox, a Button and a Label control. On Button_Click event , I store the value of Textbox in a variable called S using code behind.
I want to show the value of S in the Lable control using inline code but not using the code behind. ?
I am developing a web application in which I am suddenly facing an issue. I have a webpage which contains many controls, one of the control is JQuery color picker. Now, I am upgrading my system with telerik controls. As part of this process, I replaced textbox(txtcolor) with radcolorpicker with a different id(colorPicker). Suddenly, my code behind file is not throwing any errors like 'unable to find txtColor'. It is running successfully without build errors. But, when I open the page, system is throwing runtime exception(txtColor not found) which is correct.
I tried to change other controls with asp.net controls, still the problem persists. So, I dont think it is anything to do with telerik.
I have an intellisense problem in VS2008.I use code-behind, and though I can declare ASP elements in the aspx file, it's as if the code can't see them.The pages run OK,but when I type anAspLabel and then '.' for example, intellisense does not pop up the methods and members for this asp label.
I've tried the reset option in Options > Text Editor.Intellisense works fine if the class instance is declared in the code behind file,but it won't recognise web controls declared on the aspx page.
can Visual Studio 2008 be All-In-One tool to integrate source code continuously from team members, build, unit test?
Having used Visual Studio Team Edition 2005, unit testing each method within VS itself. I strongly believe that it is feasible to add-on tools. Example ankhsvn tool to use SVN from Visual studio [URL]
In my investigating i have come across number of tools(shown below) to use with Visual Studio 2008 professional
Development tool:- Visual Studio 2008 professional using Subversion as source control tool. Continuous Integration:- Hudson or Cruise control Build tool:- NAnt Testing:- NUnit, Selinium As Visual Studio 2008 can be used for unit testing I think NUnit is out of consideration.
In the same way i would like to have any other tools/add-ons to Visual studio to implement continuous integration, building and unit testing. This process should be automated such a way source code between team members is continuously integrated, built and unit testing is done as configured.
Objective is to use few number of tools as add-on to Visual Studio or achieve most from Visual studio itself (example unit testing). Visual Studio should be all in one tool.
I am aware that Team Foundation Server best suits my requirement, but it is out of scope due to its cost.
I recently started NOT putting code in separate file. I am using vb. I am having a problem with my database connection. The live code is working just fine....but when I try to debug locally. i get this error. connection to the database from my local visual studio is not working. A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)

Is there any tool for Visual Studio 2008 which can reformat ASPX code to make it more presentable (eg insert line breaks, format the lines so they wrap when necessary, etc)?
I noticed that some aspx controls were not being recognized by intellisense, and when I tried to compile, I got errors stating that the controls basically didn't exist.
After a lot of tinkering, I realized that the .aspx.designer.cs file was missing for several .aspx files.
I've copied and pasted code/controls into the html view, and I've tried just adding them, in the design view, to the design window. Then, when I go to code behind and try to refer to the controls (textbox1, calendar1, etc) - I get blue squiggly lines and when I hover over them, I'm told the controls are not declared.I've tried rebuilding the page, the website - switching from html to design view,shutting down and reopening VS.Net 2008. Still - the same thing happens
When I go to the page_load event in the codebehind, I can't seem to find this control at all. No intellisense whatesover. I've tried renaming, closing the solution, even changing the codebehind directive at the top of my aspx page to "codefile".
