.NET 2.0 VB Code and C# Code mixed

[evian_spring]

Hi,

I was under the impression it was possible to have two files written in
different langage with the .NET 2.0 Framework?

I have created a new web site, added one APP_CODE folder and under the
APP_CODE folder I created two new item, one C# class and one VB class
to test out if it was working.

However I get the following error when I try to compile (Did I do
something wrong or is it not allowed?)

/: Build (web): The file 'Test/APP_CODE/test.vb' and
'Test/APP_CODE/test2.cs' use a different language, which is not
allowed since they need to be compiled together.


Let me know what I did wrong, THANKS!!
Evian

You could have multiple library in different languages interacting
seamlessly but a single module (a library is generally made of one module)
should be in one language.

The WebServer automatically compile all the files in App_Code as one library
(& module), therefore they should all be in the same language!

Hi,

By default, the App_Code directory can only contain files of the same
language. However, you may partition the App_Code directory into
subdirectories (each containing files of the same language) in order to
contain multiple languages under the App_Code directory. To do this, you
need to register each subdirectory in the Web.config file for the
application.
<configuration>
<system.web>
<compilation>
<codeSubDirectories>
<add directoryName="Subdirectory"/>
</codeSubDirectories>
</compilation>
</system.web>
</configuration>
Straight from the quick start!!!!Cheers,

Thank you soooooo much!!!!! The files within a sub directory must be
of same lang but other sub directory can be of other langage. This is
great......I tried it and it works like a charm.
