If you're creating new web apps in ASP.NET 2.0, do you still use Website projects ? We strongly recommend using the new Web Application projects .
What's the difference between the two? There is a detailed comparison here, but to summarize:
- Website projects have no project file and it creates multiples assemblies. (This result in a lot of annoying scenarios.)
- Web Application projects have a physical project file and along with all other standalone classes within the project are compiled into a single assembly.
Please see our kb - How to upgrade VS 2005 website Projects to be VS 2005 Web Application Projects? to do the upgrade.
