If i place vb and cs class files together in App_Code in asp.net 2.0 i
get error that i can't place as they us a different language which is
not allowed as they have to be complied together.

Is there any solution???

I am not aware of any solution for creating a secondary App_code
folder. I think the solution would be to translate the smallest
(/easiest) code file :-(

The single App_Code directory can only contain files of the same language.

However, you can add subdirectories to the App_Code directory
in order to process multiple languages under the App_Code directory.

In order to do this, you need to register each subdirectory in the application's Web.config.

Then, simply creating the App_Code\VB and App_Code\CS directories,
and placing your VB and CS files in each, will allow you to use both languages in your app.

This only works in ASP.NET 2.0! ( and is quite easy to implement )

Does this also work for code files placed in other folders? E.g.

<webroot>
<App_Code>
<App_Code\VB>
MyClass.vb
<App_Code\CS>
MyClass.cs
<home>
default.aspx
default.aspx.vb
<welcome>
default.aspx
default.aspx.cs

No, Mark.

You can't place *.vb and .cs files in different directories
of your app and expect them to compile [ wouldn't that be nice... :-) ]

The VB/CS code subdirectories are *only* for class files.
The code in each of the dirs declared in web.config will be compiled to a separate assembly.

An alternate way to handle this would be to compile your different-language source code
to an assembly which you place in the /bin directory, and not upload the source files at all.

Hurrah! That's precisely what I was hoping you'd say! Long story, but thank
God for that!

Makes sense, now you come to mention it...

Or, even better, just stick to C#... :-)
