Re: How to share code between two different sites?

I just checked and found
1. You can't add child project to website.
2. Whenever you add reference to a dll, it gets copied in /bin folder
so you are always using duplicate not the orignal dll.

So effecitively, when we create update dll we must add it manually to
all websites. That sounds like nightmare. Is there really no solution
from microsoft to update dll automatically???

Web services sounds real cool solution but why won't that be slower if
network between servicing site and using site is slower?

so what you mean, is child class project can refer to files outsite the
website folder? Isn't this flaw in secuirty? Normal aspx pages must
stay in webfolder where as class files can be outsite? I was under the
imporession all class files must be in app_dir folder.

ah.. so youre saying instead of just coping the black-box .DLL to each
website, have each website's solution include the class library as a
child project.

yes that could be a better way to do it -- since each website points to
the same class project on the file system, it will build & include the
latest into that particular website.
