Re: Copy Web site vs Publish Website vs Web Deployment Project

The best way to prevent that possibility is to compile your classes
into assemblies and uploading the dlls to the app's bin directory.

No vb source uploaded = no one can pull up/read/download your vb source code in .vb files.

Make sure that the .Net Framework directory(where the vb and/or cs compilers are located)
is in your path; navigate to the dir where your .vb files are, and run the compile command :

vbc /t:library /out:myFile.dll myFile.vb

myFile.dll will be created/compiled in the current directory.

Move the assembly to the /bin directory of your application and fire away.
If you want to have VS.NET use it, reference it in your project.

If you want to use C#, then the command line would be :

csc /t:library /out:myFile.dll myFile.cs

If you need to import .Net classes, include them in your command line:

vbc /t:library /r:system.dll /r:system.web.dll /out:common.dll common.vb
csc /t:library /r:system.data.dll /r:system.web.dll /out:common.dll common.cs

When would I use "Copy Web site" over "Publish Website" or visa versa? Why would I use the Web Deployment Project vs
these options?

I want to make sure no one can pull up/read/download my vb source code (in .vb files).

I would prefer easy update of the site (code or aspx.)

Thanks.
