Hi,
i'm am creating a custom web project. As part of it, i'm copying over some
files from the template directory to project location. The problem is with
aspx or asmx files. i'm using AddFromTemplate method to add .aspx .asmx files
to the project folder. the problem is that i need these files to be copied
over to a specific folder inside the project
(c:\inetpub\wwwroot\projectFolder\webservices). but this method is copying
the files to the project foot folder (c:\inetpub\wwwroot\projectFolder). i
have the files already copied over the specific folder.

If i use AddFromFile, VS.net wants to have a code-behind for the aspx file.

Unfortunately, you'll still get the code-behind file using AddFromTemplate. But,
if you want to place it under the webservices folder under projectFolder...you'll
do something like the following:

Project.ProjectItems.Item("webservices").ProjectItems.AddFromTemplate(...)

Try that :)

Hope that helps :)

Hi,
thanks for the reply...
The Item("webservices") wants an object index and not folder name. an
incorrect parameter error is occuring. I am looking at getting the index of
the project item and try it again..

Dim webServicesFolder As EnvDTE.ProjectItem =
Project.ProjectItems.Item("webservices")

works beautifully for me. Maybe a parameter in AddFromTEmplate is wrong on your
part. Check it out :)

The item indexer expects either an integer (index) or key name (index). Not an
object like the item itself.

thanks for the reply,
I'm not looking to add a web-reference folder to the project. can you tell
me a way to add a aspx or asmx file with no attached code-behind to a
specific folder without visual studio requesting the user to add a code
behind. i have ten such files and one has to click ten dialog boxes in order
to get the project copied over completely.

Also i'm creating folders inside the project through
system.io.directory.createdirectory. then i'm adding the project items to the
project.
