Specify Application.dll

[Thom Little]

In ASP.NET 1.1 I could control the name of the application. It had a
namespace and created a single DLL of the form namespace.dll.

This allowed me to easily install multiple applications in the same webspace
with no naming conflicts.

How can I introduce the application name the same way in ASP.NET 2.0 to
allow me to have two pre-compiled applications in the same webspace. In
essence, how can I control the name assigned by the ASP.NET 2.0 publish
operation?

Is there an article on the subject that you would recommend?

Hi,

if you use Visual Studio 2005, you have a few options.

If you work with the default web site model, see Web Deployment Projects
http://msdn.microsoft.com/asp.net/reference/infrastructure/wdp/

If you want project model which is similar to the one in VS2003 (referencing
in the web projects works as in VS2003 plus a few other things, real
compilation step in IDE, prodices single dll), see Web Application project:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/asp.net/reference/infrastructure/wap/

This is not close to what I needed. This is EXACTLY what I needed.

This issue is THE single reason I have not migrated websites from 1.1 to
2.0.

Thank you.
