converted web 1.1 to 2.0, no longer get dlls in bin directory?

[Les Caudle]

I converted an ASP.NET 1.1 web running on IIS under XP Pro using Visual Studio
2005

It runs ok, but when I build it - no dlls are created in the BIN directory (or
any other directory that I've found).

I don't see where the settings are to configured to change the compilation model
so that I get the old BIN behavior as mentioned in:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnvs05/html/Internals.asp

There are plenty of configuration options for a Windows Application (where the
bin directory can be set), but I just don't see these for this ASP.NET 2.0
converted app.

I'd like to continue to copy the files by hand to another web server, and I
can't do this if I cannot locate them.

Hello Cause - if you'd like to precompile your website, you can use
aspnet_compiler.exe. For more information see the msdn link:

You can also find an informative article about the compiler here:

That's the way it's supposed to be.
The compilation model changed with VS 2005.

If you want to work with the same compilation model as VS 2003,
download the Web Application Tool :

http://msdn.microsoft.com/asp.net/reference/infrastructure/wap/

The WAP can compile your websites created
with VS 2005 using the same compilation model as VS 2003.

If you decide to go that way, make sure you read Scott Guthrie's tutorials :

Also, don't forget to visit the WAP forum :
