Namespace issues now after conversion to web app. Ouch!

scottlucas58 · January 5th, 2009, 03:58 PM

So I created a new web application project, got everything included and converted. But VS2005 does not like the namespace now. Doesn't recognize anything from Old_App_Code. Has anybody done this before? Any ideas? I expected App_Code to be renamed, but i didn't expect this. Any suggestions welcome.

Are you sure you have all the proper references included?

Which namespace(s) are you having trouble with?

I ended finding i needed to set each file in oldappcode to "compile". that fixed a lot of issues, but still namespace issues. I deal with it another time. I did get Webuilder happy (replacement for ProfileCommon). Thank anyway Lee.

Speaking of profiles, I recently put up a blog post about retaining strongly typed profiles in web apps by supplementing ProfileCommon with a custom class:

Don't know if this might be of some help to someone dealing with the same issue.
