Manual Compiling

[Jim Heavey]

I am trying to learn how to compile my asp.Net application manually without
VS.Net.

I have attempted to compile one module with the following command
vbc /target:library DatabaseAccess.vb /imports:system.data
/imports:system.data.sqlclient
but I get a load of errors and they usually highlight an object in the
system.data.sqlclient of system.data. What option do I need to be using to
make these error go away?

If I have a Page.aspx and a Page1.aspx.vb and Page1.aspx.vb calls "Common.vb"
how do I comiple this so it all works?

Thanks in advance for your assistance!!!!

Hi Jim,

It would help if you could post the exact and complete text for the error
message you're getting,

/import only specifies namespaces, for any library routines you call (or any
they call) you need a /library

Try creating a text file along the following lines where the /r are the dlls
you are importing. (this may take some time to get right) then do vbc
@yourtextfile at dos prompt. The following should be on one line.

/t:library /out:c:\pathtobin\nameof.dll c:\pathtofile\name.vb /r:system.dll
/r:system.web.dll /r:system.xml.dll /r:system.data.dll
