Building a ASP.Net application without using Visual Studio??
-
Hi all i have a .net application for the web which is deployed on my machine. The live server doesnt have Visual Studio IDE, only .Net framework. If i have a small changes in the code behind file then i have to build the whole code in my machine and then again tranfer all the related files to the live server. Is there any possibility of building my application on the live server without using an IDE for the build. The reason for this requirement is bcos sometimes we r placed at the client side and the client asks us to do a small change urgently and usually we dont have access to IDE so i could open the codebehind files in notepad and build the whole application to make the changes reflect. Thanxs for the help Maharishi Bhatia

I hope you can use either CSC or VBC to do that.

[rant]Geeze, can you say "Change Management" ? Tell the client to take a chill-pill. That's a recipe for bad software.[/rant] Ok, sorry for the outburst. Check out the command lines that scroll by at mach 3 at the bottom of the IDE when you do compile using the IDE. If you install the .NET Framework SDK, and not just the re-distributables, on the server, then you might be able to compile from the command line... but you'd still need to connect to the server via... telnet? How 'bout using DameWare Mini-remote control to remote control the server, launch the IDE, re-compile and make the client happy right on the spot? What a piece of work is man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable . . . and yet to me, what is this quintessence of dust? -- Hamlet, Act II, Scene ii.

but the problem is there are many interdependant cs files so how does my csc compiler know which to pick first and which to pick second Thanxs Maharishi

this remote control will work only if i was there at my pc and then make the changes but if u r at the clients place then how will that happen Thanxs Maharishi P.S : and BTW i liked ur trailer signature

OK, bad assumption -- thinking that you are working internally on a corporate intranet or LAN. How about GoToMyPc.com or a VPN connection to your site from the client site? How are you getting to your code-behind files anyway? I suppose someone could figure out a way to build a web page that would start an automated build process and detect success or failure based on a parser of the build log. (Thanks for noticing the sig... I'm sure the Bard thanks you as well. I've been thinking of something to add to contrast, perhaps a line from a Ramones song.)

we have kept the source files also with the client (we have to give the source codes also , part of company agreement). so i am at the client side and i try to change a particular code within the source code and decide to build but the problem is that the classes are interdependant on each other and the csc compiler will not understand which file to compile first and which to compile next......

Looking at the command line switches, it might be an extraordinarily complex task to automate a build using only the code-behind files; however, if you don't have a bunch of satellite assemblies and project references (all your *.cs files are in one directory) then you should be able to compile and the compiler will actually figure out the dependencies. Read the documentation on csc.exe command line switches. Otherwise, you probably need devenv.exe on the machine or remote access to a machine with devenv.exe What a piece of work is man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable . . . and yet to me, what is this quintessence of dust? -- Hamlet, Act II, Scene ii.
