Visual Studio 2005 Web projects

[Code Monkey]

Just received the Visual Studio 2005 Pro DVD.
One question - VS2003 had 2 options when building - 'DEBUG' and
'RELEASE'.

I can only see 'DEBUG' as an option in VS2005 - how do we do a RELEASE
version? Is or it all down the web.config file?

Hello,

I can only see 'DEBUG' as an option in VS2005 - how do we do a RELEASE
version? Is or it all down the web.config file?

In .NET 2.0 (unlike 1.1), Visual Studio 2005 delegates *all* compilation
responsibilities to the ASP.NET platform.
In essence, there is no need to have a Release configuration.
For background infos see here:
