Code Behind Class File Question Do Most People Use This Design?

I am still migrating from old ASP to ASP.NET with VB.NET. I created
an app as a single file type application and later found out about
Visual Studio and code behind class files. Is that the predominant
design method? Or just with Visual Studio (guess they are the only
ones who can do it)? Does the compiling the .net page do any good?
Does it make it more scalable or something? Insights on this issue
please. Thank you.

Going compiled-codebehind will give you a performance boost over inline
script. In my applications, I've used both methods - single file pages with
a discrete <script /> block (like what WebMatrix does) can be easier to
maintain for lower priority applications. These applications can be repaired
with Notepad if need be.

But going the code behind route does give you more speed, especially if your
classes are compiled.

Stupid question here, so I can use the code behind forms, what I read
elsewhere as webforms, with databases, etc.? It just compiled because I
was able to use Visual Studio to do it? A "benefit" of paying for
Visual Studio .NET?

For example, now, I have an ASP.NET app that has a few datagrids on it,
controls, the events, etc. and some client-side javascript. In the web
form model, all that vb.net gets compiled into a .dll and the page
simply has the datagrids, etc. on it with the JavaScript? And somehow,
in the page, I call that .dll like calling a class COM object (like the
old ASP way)?

Code Behind vs not

by: tshad | last post by:

I am just trying to decide whether to split my code and uses code behind. I did it with one of my pages and found it was quite a bit of trouble. I know that most people (and books and articles) like it because you can split the code from the design. That is logical. But if you are the only one working on the code, it seem a little overkill. I use Dreamweaver to do my design and find it a bit of a hassle to have multiple files open...

Design flow for Code-behind

by: tshad | last post by:

Many (if not most) have said that code-behind is best if working in teams - which does seem logical. How do you deal with the flow of the work? I have someone who is good at designing, but know nothing about ASP. He can build the design of the pages in HTML with tables, labels, textboxes etc. But then I would need to change them to ASP.net objects and write the code to make the page work (normally I do this as I go - can't do this...

Problem With Comparison Operator <=> in G++

by: Oralloy | last post by:

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
