Visual Studio Publish now works!

Hi All,

I wanted to give a heads up to folks working from the source code repository that the latest code in the repository has some significant improvements to the Visual Studio projects and solutions and I have updated some relevant documentation but wanted to bring it to your attention.

You can now use the Visual Studio Publish feature to package mojoPortal as described in the updated article Packaging and Deployment. I'm very happy about this because it has historically been one of those things that developers who are new to mojoPortal always stumbled with but prior to VS 2010 there was not a way to solve it.

Also much nicer now for those who work with data layers other than MS SQL, you no longer have to change project references to use a different data layer. Now it is as easy as choosing the build configuration. I updated the old document "Setting the Data Layer in Visual Studio". I really love this since I'm always going back and forth working on different data layers.

Best,

Joe
