Thread: Mixing vb.net & C# in ML 9

I'm working with a proprietary vb.net script in ADNSF 9.0.1.2 c# (I know I know). When compiling I'm running into an error calling for a reference to the following assembly: "ASPDNSFApplication, Version=9.0.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=d3bfa7dbea38d867' containing the base class 'AspDotNetStorefront.Global". The assembly has been added to the web.config and as well in the bin directory, but will not work. How should I proceed?

Thanks!

**EDIT**
See post #5 for this thread. At first, I must admin I was somewhat upset by this "bug", but now, after taking a step back, I'v found that this is actually a cleaner way to build custom classes. PROPS TO THE AspDotNetStorefront Team! If we get a fix or not in the future, I may continue to code this way!

I meant to say 9.0.1.3.

Microsoft has confirmed that this is indeed a bug in the framework that can occur depending on application structure any time a vb.net file is present. Due to the logistics of the issue, they don't intend on resolving and recommend finding a workaround. We are currently pursuing said workaround and should have a resolution within the next couple days or so.

Any updates?

I know this can be a pain, but I'm actually compiling this method right now and it seems to work:
First: Put your vb.net in a file in a sub directory of App_Code
Second: Put the following in web.config under "compilation"

C#/VB.NET Code:

            <codeSubDirectories>
                <add directoryName="MyDirectoryName" />
            </codeSubDirectories> 


Third reference your vb.net class in a c# page

Seems to work, I will let you know if I run into anything major.

This method is now confirmed and working.
