I am trying to add multiple CSS files across several projects and have added them as a "link" but when I build my solution it does not copy the files. Is there any way to share a bunch of CSS files across several projects?

Is there a way to share class files across web site projects without actually making a physical copy of the file to the App_Code folder of each project?
If MVC application has multiple projects (The solution may grow large in future). These projects may share controllers such as application controller accouts controller and there may also be a situation in which namespace of one project is shared by other project. What is the best way of implementing such solution. One approach may be to use areas.
View 4 RepliesI have 2 projects, where they both can upload attachments into a directory.
The problem is how do you get the projects to be able to access each others attachments or even save these attachments in the same folder...
At the moment my ProjectA saves uploads into its "uploads" folder... But when you are running ProjectB it doesnt have the same uploads folder (if that makes sense)
e.g.
ProjectA uploads folder: localhost:50732uploads
ProjectB uploads folder: localhost:50331uploads
I want these projects to be able to view attachments that the "other" project has uploaded.
it's possible for multiple projects to reference/share the same bin folder?
View 4 RepliesIs there a way to share user controls between various projects ?
I have created user controls like login control, menu control, header control, lost password control and etc and they are all connected to sql database for data.
I would like to share these between various web site projects, it means I have same functionality and the only modifications I can do is within CSS styles.
Do I need to copy modules or is there a way to keep them as shared classes/modules and call what I need every time I need it?
I am looking for general direction on the best practice here. I have a class that I want to share between two different forms in two projects that are associated. The two forms are in seperate projects but both projects load together as I have added the second project to the first. I also have a class that I want to share between these two projects which will cause me to add another project to this solution with will mean I will have three projects in my solution. My question is how do I best share this class?
I believe the only way to do this is to add the class in the reference in both of the form projects?... Is this correct ? I'd really like to just reference the class and inherit it in the source code without adding it as a reference but I am feeling that I can't do that. I am obviously pressed for time and working on other projects and a I am a experienced coder with only about 1 year of C# experience...
I've seen some teams that start breaking into multiple projects from the beginning and others build behemoth single projects. The large project teams say that one massive project is easier to maintain than multiple smaller projects.
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to share settings between two projects: a console app and a WPF app. The WPF app only exists to view and change those settings.
So in my console app, I wrote the following class...
[Code]....
My WPF app has a reference to the console application, so it can access the members of this Settings class.
So you'd think that if I use the WPF app to change one of these settings, then the next time I run the console app that changed setting would be available, but that is not the case. I'll change the masUserID setting from Bill to Ted, for example, but when I launch the console app it shows the setting is still Bill. If I run the WPF app, it's set to Ted.
I am using VS2005 and I have a solution file (.SLN) which has 8 projects. I moved the solution file to a different path on a shared folder to have better organization of my projects and to allow access to the solution/projects from any computer on the network. After that, I edited the .SLN file so that the path of the projects in the solution file are correct (all on shared folders).
After that, I opened the .SLN and everything seemd to be working fine. However, I notcied that the "Start Options" of the website part of the solution file is missing the "Start Options", ie, the Start Options are reset to default values. I think also, but not sure, some other settings of the Solution/Projects have been reset.
Questions:
1. Where the Web Site "Start Options" are stored ?
2. How I can maintain the Start Options and similar settings if the .SLN file is moved or opened from different computers on the network ?
3. I am not using an team development tools, only plain (vanilla) VS 2005 Prof. Edition. Is it possible to have 2 or more developers work on the same solution/projects (shared on the network), if both developers will coordinate manually simultanous access to the porject files/resources/source code ?
I'm building an application where custom modules may be developed and "dropped in" to the system, where they can be picked up and utilized.
I'm building a forum module and have a user control to create a login/registration region. I plan on using a struct to store the user session data. However, i need this class structure to be shared between the forum module and the login/registration control.
Because the functionality is to be contained in the module's folder, i cant add any assemblies to the app_code folder.
How can i share a class or struct among two user controls?
I have multiple projects that need to share resource files (.resx) Suggestions have been made to move resource files to a separate assembly and have web projects reference it. Is there an example of how to do this?
Do I create a new Class Library project and move App_GlobalResource folder inside of that? I don't think that will work because code classes that are generated for resource files are marked as 'internal' which means that they can not be accessed outside of this assembly.

View 1 RepliesI have a project where I need different versions of the same site.
I need to accomplish this by having different versions of the same resource files.
I would like to store the different versions of the same resource files in seperate projects in the same solution. Then choose which project of resource files to use when I publish or compile.
I've been searching the net everywhere and my deadline is coming up.
My team is creating several solutions to develop separate branches of the same site. We have some CSS, partials, and master view files that we would like to somehow share between solutions. I have tried linking files but that has to be done for each and every file (cannot link directories, it seems). Does anyone have a tried and true system for doing this sort of thing for larger sites (other than putting everything in one massive solution)?

We have been building ASP.Net websites for many years. During this time we gathered a lot of knowledge of ASP.Net. We know what to use, a what not. One problem is still, persistently, bugging us. I hope to solve this for once and for all.
We have a fairly large solution with lots of aspx-files. All aspx-files reside in one Web Application Project. This single big WAP needs to be split in multiple smaller projects.
There are a number of ways to accomplish this, but I am still unsure what the best way would be. We use ASP.Net 4.0 and Visual Studio 2010 Premium.
This is our current work-around (which we do not like)
[code]....
So I've create a solution with multiple projects... one is for my website, the other for my data. I've added the reference and everything seems to be working just fine. Until now...
I recently created a model.edmx for a table and a stored procedure. When I trying and create a variable of that model, I get this error:
The type 'System.Data.Objects.ObjectContext' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly 'System.Data.Entity, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'.
I'm assuming this is because I'm using multiple projects.
We have a number of projects and across projects cerrtain forms are duplicated.
Is there a way that I can create one form and reuse it across multiple projects?

We have about 50 web-sites, running in different application pools, that read from a common cache database (using Microsoft Enterprise Library Caching application block). We currently have a console application which populates the cache at 3AM every morning. However, we want to get rid of this application and get the cache to automatically refresh expired items, using the ICacheItemRefreshAction interface.
We were going to create our cache object in the Global.asax of each of the 50 web-sites. However, my concern is that if we set a cache-expiration policy in Global.asax, that each of the 50 web-sites will trigger a refresh action, causing the data to be re-cached 50 times. We don't want only 1 web-site to set the expiration policies, as then the 49 other web-sites will have a dependency on that 1 web-site, and that's an architecture no-no.
Is there a way to copmile a solution into a single dll?
Said solution may have several custom projects. I want all of them, and all the third party dll's they reference compiled into a single dll.
I'm looking at doing a pair of MVC applications. One of the application will be a public website and the other for a POS kiosk. There will be some common views between the two applications. I'm considering having a single Visual Studio solution that will contain the two projects. But, I'm not sure how I can go about sharing the common views between the two projects, without just copy and pasting.
Is there way of doing it? Or should I be looking at using a different approach?
