Project path names

i read this article where some guy explained how to create new module which is in new project. I would like to know what does he mean for "project path names" what names to write on XXX places.

thank you

The purpose of this section is so that your code from your UI project will be automatically copied into the mojoportal project with each build. If you haven't used these, $(ProjectDir) and $(SolutionDir) are macros that Visual Studio recognizes. For more info about post-build events,see this article.

Copy the commands below into the text box labeled "Post-build event command line:" and replace XXX with your project path names and YYY with your project names:

xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)bin\YYY.UI.dll" "$(SolutionDir)Web\bin\"

xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)bin\YYY.Business.dll" "$(SolutionDir)Web\bin\"

xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)bin\YYY.Data.dll" "$(SolutionDir)Web\bin\"

xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)XXX\*.ashx" "$(SolutionDir)Web\XXX\"

xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)XXX\*.ascx" "$(SolutionDir)Web\XXX\"

xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)XXX\*.aspx" "$(SolutionDir)Web\XXX\"

xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)XXX\Controls\*.ascx" "$(SolutionDir)Web\XXX\Controls\"

xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)App_GlobalResources\*.resx" "$(SolutionDir)Web\App_GlobalResources\"

xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)Setup\*" "$(SolutionDir)Web\Setup"

Save after you have replaced the paths, right click your Web project and choose Properties. In the Build Events tab, click the Edit Post-build... button and you can paste this there.

Re: Project path names

If you are working with the mojoPortal source code I recommend study the post build events for WebStore and/or mojoPortal.Features.UI to get the idea how it works and notice how the features are organized into folders within their projects, ie the WebStore feature has all its pages and user controls in the /WebStore folder within the project and that needs to land at "$(SolutionDir)Web\WebStore\"

Hope that helps,

Joe
