Build the ASP.NET project

Topic updated 11-6-2007

Run the Project Wizard ArrowLeft

ArrowRight Save and run the ASP.NET project

After running the Project Wizard adding pages, the ASP.NET project is ready to built.

First, set the generation directory where GenWise should generate source code for the ASP.NET project.
 

main_buidfirstapp-39

 

Hint:
Use a subdirectory from the project directory you created in step 4, when you saved your Database Repository. Call the subdirectory AspNet, which is the default name that GenWise uses for a generation directory for an ASP.NET project, or use another name that clearly indicates what the directory is for.
 
The generation directory can be cleaned automatically by GenWise Studio, and at each generation files will get overwritten. This is why you should have a dedicated generation directory for each project.

 

Click the Build icon on the Build Toolbar, this makes the Build Page for the ASP.NET project appear.

main_buidfirstapp-40

 

Click on the Build button. This starts the process of generating the source code for your ASP.NET project, and then compiling it.

main_buidfirstapp-41

 

Wait for the build process to finish.

 

Notice that after a successful build all project items of the ASP.NET project now appear in black in the Project Explorer. This indicates that the generated source code is up-to-date.
