Re: Website Project vs. Web Application Project in Visual Studio.net 2005

This one has separate business services and data access layers, but it's
a 6 y/o design where depending on what URL you arrive on it will
redirect you to a template page in one of the 55 folders, and then
instruct that template which control to insert in its content area. Has
provided us with a "skinable" website for the past 6 years, but as
mentioned it's becoming unmanageable recently. Also, am not sure how we
could split it up, as each style relies on the insertable controls being
in the same project.

I divide a site into multiple web app projects.  Then copy the separate
dlls into the bin dir.  It can be tricky, but using separate classes for
business logic helps.

This helps load times for visual studio.

I'm looking the other way for easier development - currently our web app
is in excess of 100 folders just in the root and it's becoming too big
to manage. I'm trying to see if there's a way we can develop these
folders in pairs (there's 55 sets of Admin and Secure folder pairs, plus
their image folders etc) such that the project I am working on is only 4
or 5 folders, and each staff member can be working on a different pair
of folders. We may still need a behemoth project to actually deploy it,
but would make development easier.

I find that Web Apps are clearer to deploy.  The magic "ASP" style of
drop a
file and have the server compile it frustrates me...I want to only
deploy
???x files and the bin folder.

Thanks,

You would need to precompile your application. This can be done from
aspnet_compiler.exe or from the "Publish Website" menu option. If you
choose
the latter, make sure you uncheck the 'Allow this site to be updatable'
as
that still leaves your .aspx/.ascx/.master/.ashx files uncompiled.
