Re: VS2008: should data sets be placed in App_Data?

Datasets aren't the same as XSD schema.
An XSD file is a schema class that defines what your xml will look like, not including data.

Also, see :

"Arbitrary file types can be placed in the App_Code folder to create strongly typed objects.
Placing Web service files (.wsdl and .xsd files) in the App_Code folder creates strongly typed proxies."

In VS2008 it does not suggest as it used to in VS2005. The only way to place DataSets (i.e. xsd) in App_Code is to
drag them into the folder after creating them. It is not a big deal but I'm curious what the best practice is.
Another difference is that when you Add a DataSet the TableAdapter wizard is no longer automatically launched.
Does your VS2008 behave like VS2005 in the above scenarios?

And I don't mean data files.

Try to add them from the main menu. It should suggest to add them in App_Code...

It looks like to me you are confusing DataSets with data files (such as a SQL Server MDF file) ???

I'm working on a small Web project in VS2008. In VS2005 it was recommended that DataSet be placed in App_Data
folder (the framework did that automatically). In VS2008 the framework does not give me that option. The Add.New
Item in the App_Data context menu does not even list the DataSet.

Does anyone know what is behind the change and what the recommended practice is?
Thanks.
