Hey guys, was just wondering whether anyone has a solution for the following;
We're developing DotNetNuke modules which live in a custom VS 2008 solution. Each module is contained within a new project which gets packaged on build and installed to a website as an extension which extracts the required files into their appropriate location within the website. We'd like to share user controls between these projects; however, in order to register them within the module's a source path must be specified which works in our development environment as well as when the modules are deployed to the website, otherwise when a VS designer file is generated, it generates a control of the incorrect type. One solution I have found for this was to change the c# project settings and use local IIS Web server as opposed to VS Development server as then I can assign the virtual directory it creates to the website root and it can find the user controls that I would like to register and this maintains the same source path between both environments. The only issue with this is it becomes a bit of a task to maintain in a team environment. Another obvious solution would be to make a copy of the controls directory from the website and place it within each module project directory; however this also becomes difficult to maintain. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. George
