I want to simulate deployment of an application (small app consisting of just two pages). I don't want to deploy the source code, though.
Here what I think I should do (along with some questions where I am not sure):
1. Create a virtual directory (e.g. MYAPPTEST)
2. Create BIN directory under the MYAPPTEST (in INETPUB/WWWROOT)
3. Copy MYAPP.DLL created by VS.NET to the folder BIN
4. Copy all .ASPX files to the root directory (MYAPPTEST)? I am not sure about this one: does assembly DLL have the .ASPX pages? or they have to be copied to the MYAPPTEST. Hopefully the code-behind files are in the DLL. Right?
Anything I am missing here?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
