ASP.NET 1.1 to ASP.NET 2.0 Migration #3
This is quite important when you place references of class libraries in your web application. There are times when you will change the path of these class libraries. You not going to right click on the project and add references again & again.
Example, if your current project name is ProjectA and you need to rename it as ProjectB. This happens as sometimes customers demand it, but you already named your projects accordingly.
What you can do is simple?
In your bin directory in your web application http://localhost/MIND, say:
bin
-> A.dll
-> A.pdb
-> A.dll.refresh
-> B.dll
Right click on A.dll.refresh file and open with notepad. You will see as below:
..\..\ProjectA\ClassLib\bin\Debug\A.dll
change it to:
..\..\ProjectB\ClassLib\bin\Debug\A.dll
Simple right. This is very important. If you don't do this, you will get a warning in your Visual Studio 2005 stating that there is no auto refresh to the particular dll.
I am not sure is there any better and simpler way. If there is, let me know :D
Updated: I just noticed that sometimes the DLLS were not updated even you had .refresh files.
