Web Site Project Property Pages?

[Brian McCullough]

Hello,

I have a single Web Site Project (WSP, not Web Application Project/WAP). I
don't have a WDP project with this, so I don't have a need for a solution
file (.sln). I have noticed that my settings in the References, Build,
Accessibility, and Start Options property pages for my WSP are persisted
when I close and open my web site (I have set it up as a local IIS web site,
not file system).

I understand that my References are stored in my WSP's web.config file in
the <assemblies> element.

Question 1: Where are the settings for the Build, Accessibility, and Start
Options property pages persisted (i.e. how does Visual Studio 2005 know what
these settings are if I have no solution file and because it is a WSP, no
project file, each time I open my Web Site from my local IIS)???




It looks like the settings for the MSBuild Options property page for my WSP
are NOT persisted between Visual Studio sessions (as are the settings from
the other property pages). It looks like these settings are persisted only
to a Solution File (.sln).

Question 2: Do I need a Solution File (.sln) to persist my MSBuild options
for my WSP project?

TIA

I'd like to know the answer to this question as well. It seems like I've
looked everywhere for these settings, but I can't find out where they're
stored. Where does VS get/store this information? Some file? Registry?

Settings are not there, especially if you're working with source control and
custom locations for projects since these directories are not created
automatically (unless you start a new project). There has to be another place
where these settings are stored.

This is incorrect.

This would be the default location for a solution file (.sln) for a Web Site
Project, but as I stated, I don't have a solution file for my Web Site
Project.

Anyone else???

Thanks!!!
