App_Code class compiled twice? xxx exists in both

who knows how to fix this:

Code:

The type 'Jennison.Affirm2.BLL.BizObject' exists in both '{AAD7306F-132A-4A58-906B-A2E1BEB84615}' and '{9302F7D0-6B02-4DFC-B740-B945F93DB468}'

my app code classes are compiled twice!

This sounds like a problem with the web application project. Are you using that for the project type? If that's the case then here's what's going on:

You compile the application in the IDE. This includes all the code files in the App_Code directory because they are included in the project list of code files. Then you run your application. .NET 2.0 automagically compiles everything in the App_Code directory when you start running your web app. This then results in 2 assemblies, one for the explicitly compiled application (Jennison.Affirm2.BLL) and one for the dynamically compiled code in the App_Code directory.

You need to move all the code files out of that directory so there isn't anything to dynamically compile.

thanks. understood. i cant do that, however, because the code i am working with has this in the web.config

Code:

  <configSections>
    <section name="aaatest" type="xxx.xxx.aaaSection, __code"/>
  </configSections>

the __CODE tells it to look in the app_code folder.

???

removed the ref to __code, just left that part blank, and moved code out of app_code.
i hated that folder.

thanks for help!
