I just start using new VS 2005. I was playing with it, by creating new web application which is now web site, but just wondering where is the dll now? Even I can see any bin folder. Can anybody explain to me, how new VS 2005 web site application is working? If I want to deploy site to live site without source then how can I do it as there is no bin folder and dll?

Thanks for any reply.

Hi Polash,

When using VS 2005 Web Site Projects, the DLL isn't actually generated until you publish the application.  You can do this either by selecting Build->Publish Web Site, or by using the new VS 2005 Web Deployment Project (which gives you greater build control -- as well the option to generate a single assembly for your project).

Details on the Web Deployment Project can be found here: http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2005/11/06/429723.aspx

Hope this helps,

Scott
