how to change "solution" paths for source control

Beemer Biker

I didnt see any "save solution" in the VS8 files menu where I can save the
project solution to a different directory. My program needs to be checked
into our source control system (Accurev) and people that check it out will
be putting it in different places.

I looked at "nchansite. sln" and here is some of the stuff that needs to
change:
===============
Project("{E24C6 5DC-7377-472B-9ABA-BC803B73C61A}") = "c:\nchansite\" ,
"..\..\..\..\.. \..\nchansite", "{3F1C8123-5DE8-41B2-AAA4-4CAF9201EF08}"
ProjectSection( WebsiteProperti es) = preProject
Debug.AspNetCom piler.VirtualPa th = "/nchansite"
Debug.AspNetCom piler.PhysicalP ath = "..\..\..\..\.. \..\nchansite\"
=============== =

OK, the project is at c:\nchansite but it seems the solution is at
"..\..\..\..\.. \..\nchansite" I know it is because that is where I found
the .sln So I edited the .sln and found by trial and error that
"..\..\..\..\.. \..\nchansite", needed to be "." I also changed the
PhysicalPath to "./"
After I got thru I found the "nchansite. sln" could live in the nchansite
directory but was being published. I can fix that by editing the .sln and
moving the .sln out of the published directory name into a "project root".

Anyway, there has got to be a simpler way. How do I specify that the
solution goes into, say "projects/root_nchansite" and all the sources go
into "projects/root_nchansite/nchansite"

Another question: Maybe the solution does not even need to go into source
control???? Is VS8 smart enough to open an existing "projects/nchansite"
and create its own .sln?

Problem with "Find in Entire Solution"

by: Nick Gilbert | last post by:

Hi, I'm not sure if I've broken my VS.NET installation or if there has always been a bug of some sort, but basically Find in Entire Solution (ctrl-shift-F) isn't finding strings in my solution's project files which I KNOW are there. For example, if I search for Page_Load (which is in many many files) it finds nothing.

VS.NET 2005 "Clean Solution" does not work for web project

Hi, In my VS.NET 2005, if I choose Build Clean Solution, the BIN folder is not touched. Shouldn't it delete all the dll and pdb files in that folder first? Instead, I'm finding I have to do it manually. Also, when I change from Debug to Release, all the pdb files remain in the bin folder. Shouldn't these be deleted automatically? Please let me know what the "Clean Solution" is supposed to do (if it's

Solution: "Element '%' is not a known element. This can occur if there is a compilation error in the Web site"

by: hirebrian | last post by:

If you run accross the error message: "Element '%' is not a known element. This can occur if there is a compilation error in the Web site" where '%' is the value of the tagName attribute on a web user control you have delcared in your web.config file, then you might try prefixing your src attribute value with the ~ (tilda) character. As you probably know, this character tells ASP.NET to resolve the path from the application root.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
