When I use the "normal" "Publish-tool" built into Visual Studio for ASP.net, it seems like it does not include XML-comment-files that belongs to dependent projects/assemblies.
For instance, lets say we have two projects:
Presentation = The Web-application
Definitions = A project
containing definitions of models
The presentation-project has a dependency to the Definition-project.
The presentation-project has XML-comments enabled, and so does the Definition-project (for all configurations).
The presentation-project has a few comments added to the actions of its controller(s).
The definition-project has a few comments added to the properties of the model(s).
The expected result would be that when I publish the Presentation-project, we should end up with two XML- files in the bin folder:
Presentation.xml
Definitions.xml
The names might of course alter if any other name has been specified in the build-properties of each project.
The actual result is that only Presentation.xml is published to the bin-folder.
I have tried to link resulting Definitions.xml-file to the Presentation-project as setting it as "Content" and to always copy, that ended up in the file getting copied to the root-folder of the application during a publish and not the /bin-folder.
I have tried the same thing but linked it into the bin-folder of the Presentation-project, but that ened up with the result of the Definitions.xml-file ending up at /bin/bin/Definitions.xml.
I have tried linking and setting Always, but that did nothing.
Here is a simple sample that can be used to reconstruct the problem:
https://github.com/Inx51/publishdemo
However.. one thing to notice is that the Definitions.xml-file is indeed copied to the /bin-folder during build, but its not copied once using publish.
Anyone that has a workaround for this strange behaviour?
Edit your project XML file, .csproj/.vbproj, and include this in the first PropertyGroup:
<ExcludeXmlAssemblyFiles>false</ExcludeXmlAssemblyFiles>
This will include all the .xml of all dependent assemblies.

you can use the bootstrap configurator (http://getbootstrap.com/customize/) to configure your own bootstrap version (e.g. set the variables like #grid-float-breakpoint to configure the navbar collapse point). I want to use this feature within my project which is based on gwt using https://github.com/gwtbootstrap3/gwtbootstrap3based.
I managed to create my download my configured bootstrap.zip using the method above.
The zip contains (as expected):
\bootstrap\js
\bootstrap\css
\bootstrap\fonts
just as GWTBootstrap3 project
gwtbootstrap3-0.9.3\org\gwtbootstrap3\client\resource\js
gwtbootstrap3-0.9.3\org\gwtbootstrap3\client\resource\css
gwtbootstrap3-0.9.3\org\gwtbootstrap3\client\resource\fonts
So I tried to replace the bootstrap files out of css with the genereated bootstrap files.
But then I recognized that in the GWTBootstrap3 project there are files named *.cache.min.
How / when are these files generated? This is explained already here: GWT Caching Concept
So obviously we want to replace the bootstrap files to remain "cache"d.
Can you please forward me a step-by-step description of how to use bootstrap configurator along with the current GWTBootstrap3 project , i.e. what files need to be replaced?
What I already tried (with no success):
0.) Create a bootstrap.zip with the online configurator and download it
1.) Rename gwtbootstrap3-0.9.3.jar to gwtbootstrap3-0.9.3.zip
2.) Extract
3.) Replace bootstrap-3.3.6.min.cache.css with bootstrap.min.css (from the configurator) and replacing meaning the bootstrap.min.css is renamed to bootstrap-3.3.6.min.cache.css
4.) Put all files from bootstrap.zip into the respective directory and renaming it accordingly as explained in 3.) to effectively replacing the original file
5.) zip and rename it again to gwtbootstrap3-0.9.3.jar
6.) replace the lib in my project
But after doing so I continuously get the compiler errors:
Package org.gwtbootstrap3.client.ui cannot be found.
Any help greatly appreciated
Best regards
Hannes
I can provide an answer which should work for most of the configuration changes. First of all I had to learn that renaming gwtbootstrap3-0.9.3.jar to gwtbootstrap3-0.9.3.zip then unzip, rezip and rename to jar does NOT WORK!!!
So here is a step by step tutorial of how to configure your bootstrap and use it with gwtbootstrap3.0.9.3 . I am not sure this will work for future editions but it should work for bootstrap3.
Configure and download your new bootstrap
https://github.com/gwtbootstrap3/gwtbootstrap3based.
Unzip your new bootstrap, this will provide the subdirectories css,
fonts and js. So you will have something like bootstrap/css etc.
Now copy your "old" gwtboostrap3.0.9.3 jar to the base directory, so
that the bootstrap.zip and the jar lie in the same directory.
From the commandline issue jar xf gwtbootstrap3.0.9.3.jar which will
create the 2 directories META-INF and org in your directory
Move into org\gwtbootstrap3\client\resource\css
Copy the FILENAME (not the file!!!). In my gwtbootstrap version the
file is called "bootstrap-3.3.6.min.cache.css".
Rename the file bootstrap/css/bootstrap.min.css to
bootstrap/css/bootstrap-3.3.6.min.cache.css and REPLACE
org\gwtbootstrap3\client\resource\css\bootstrap-3.3.6.min.cache.css
with bootstrap/css/bootstrap-3.3.6.min.cache.css
Rename the file bootstrap\css\boostrap-theme.min.css to
boostrap\css\bootstrap-theme-3.3.6.min.cache.css and REPLACE
org\gwtbootstrap3\client\resource\css\bootstrap-theme-3.3.6.min.cache.css
with bootstrap\css\bootstrap-theme-3.3.6.min.cache.css
I left out the fonts directory because my changes did not change
anything with the fonts
Rename bootstrap\js\bootstrap.min.js to
bootstrap\js\bootstrap-3.3.6.min.cache.js and REPLACE
org\gwtbootstrap3\client\resource\js\bootstrap-3.3.6.min.cache.js
with bootstrap\js\bootstrap-3.3.6.min.cache.js
In the basedirectory (where the bootstrap directory lies) issue from
the commandline: "jar xf gwtbootstrap3.0.9.3.jar META-INF org". This
should produce your new gwtbootstrap3.0.9.3.jar lib
In your project replace the old gwtbootstrap3.0.9.3.jar with the new
lib.
In case you get lots of java errors telling you it cannot find the classes you mixed up the paths. Please let me know if this worked out for your. Perhaps someone can provide a shellscript to automate the whole process.
One tip: Customizing your bootstrap gives you more control, e.g. for handling the point at which the navbar becomes uncollapsed (at the configuration page look for the key called "#grid-float-breakpoint"). Don't forget to enter a value suitable for you (mine was 800px). Don't forget to add px at the end!!
I've created some forms following this approach:
iron g:template cars/create_car
and the following files were created:
create_car.css
create_car.html
create_car.js
Easy question - if I want to change the name of the files where else do I have to update to keep my changes in sync with the rest of the application?
Thank you!
Mark
You won't be out of sync by changing file's name.
The only things which would change is the file load order, according to the documentation:
HTML template files are always loaded before everything else.
Files beginning with main. are loaded last
Files inside any lib/ directory are loaded next
Files with deeper paths are loaded next
Files are then loaded in alphabetical order of the entire path
On your case It's wouldn't probably cause any issue, feel free to test.
I cannot deploy my asp.net 4.5 website because I am getting multiple dreaded "The type 'myClassX' exists in both C:\Users\Me\...\whereItsSupposedToBe\ and C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\Temp\Temporary ASP.NET Files\root\1randomname\_shadow\2randomname\3randomname\App_web_myClassX.cs.4acf3bb.nommceoi.dll errors.
There are three files involved. MyClasses.cs contains definitions for MyClassB, MyClassC, MyClassD. Page1.aspx and page2.aspx include in their <%page %> tag a src attribute for MyClasses.cs.
I have so far done the following:
cleaned the solution and project
shut down VS12
deleted the root\1randomname directory and emptied the recycling bin
restarted the #^$#ing computer
deleted the offending files, cleaned and built, created new files and
renamed all involved filenames, classes and namespaces (oh yeah, they
all used to be'myOGClassA'....)
introduced dummy variables hoping that would change the dll
deleted the bin and obj directories
added the batch="false" attribute to the compilation element of the
web.config file as mentioned here: ASP.Net error: "The type 'foo' exists in both "temp1.dll" and "temp2.dll"
Something makes me wonder if having two of the aspx files having references to the same src file has something to do with it. But in all the blogs and SO posts Iv seen so far that would result in the conflicts both coming from the temp directories.
Head starting to hurt... Any suggestions?
I have "fixed the problem" but I am not sure why it is fixed.
To recreate the problem:
Create a New Project -> ASP.NET Web Forms Application.
Create a new folder ("Search").
Add the three files from the demo project zip found at Static-Site Search Engine with ASP.NET/C# by craigd (Searcharoo version 1). These files are Searcharoo.cs, SearcharooCrawler.aspx, and Searcharoo.aspx.
Take a look at SearcharooCrawler.aspx. At this point I get the 'exists...' errors. If you still do not see errors, view the project in the browser. The errors seem to appear as you are looking at the .aspx files in VS12.
To fix:
Create a new folder ("Happy_App")
Move Searcharoo.cs to the new Happy_App. This fixes the 'exists...' errors, but now Searcharoo.cs 'can't be found' so...
Delete the 'Src="Searcharoo.cs"' attribute from the top <%paging...%> tag in both aspx files. I believe that this Src attribute is no longer used in ASP.NET 4.5 (I may be wrong)
View in browser and navigate to the Search/SearcharooCrawler page. No errors! (need to add a few properties in web.config to get the searcharoo demo working, but thats not the point of this post...)
But the truly weird part - I found that after moving the Searcharoo.cs file to the Happy_App folder I could move it back the original Search folder without any 'Exists' problems!
Why??
If anyone has an explanation that would be awesome. But for now I'm happy I could get a resolution without sacrificing a small animal...
I've been trying to figure out how to programmatically add files to an Xcode4 project and it seemed like AppleScript would be the way to go, however I'm running into "missing value" errors.
Here's the code I've got:
tell application "Xcode"
set theProject to first project
set theTarget to first target of theProject
set theBuildPhase to compile sources phase of theTarget
tell first group of theProject
set theFileRef to make new file reference with properties {full path:"/Users/jeff/Projects/XcodeTest/XcodeTest/MyViewController.h", name:"MyViewController.h", path:"XcodeTest/MyViewController.h", path type:group relative}
add theFileRef to theProject
end tell
--tell theBuildPhase to make new build file with properties {build phase:theBuildPhase, name:"MyViewController.h", file reference:theFileRef, target:theTarget, project:theProject}
end tell
I've tried the commented-out line instead of the add-command as well, but that doesn't work either (I get "missing value").
The 'add' error is:
error "Xcode got an error: file reference id \"251AD3431432472E006E300F\" of Xcode 3 group id \"251AD32C14324645006E300F\" of project \"XcodeTest\" of workspace document \"XcodeTest.xcodeproj/project.xcworkspace\" doesn’t understand the add message." number -1708 from file reference id "251AD3431432472E006E300F" of Xcode 3 group id "251AD32C14324645006E300F" of project "XcodeTest" of workspace document "XcodeTest.xcodeproj/project.xcworkspace"
The "make new reference" does add the file to the list of files in Xcode, but I also need it to be added to the project target so that I can add actions and outlets to the file from Xcode w/o having to first check the checkbox to add it to the "target membership".
I ended up sending this question to the devs on the xcode developer list and the response I got was effectively "you can't".
This appears to be completely broken in Xcode4, but I've seen a project that does it. I think what they are doing is parsing and modifying the "project.pbxproj" file directly. (this file is hidden inside the xcodeproj bundle)
The file is a GUID soup, but once you look at it for a while it seems possible to safely modify it, especially if you are only adding stuff.
Edit:
Found this stackoverflow answer that might help.
Tutorial or Guide for Scripting XCode Build Phases
There is a poorly documented user defined build setting that can be added. Files can be both excluded and included from compilation
Go to your target's Build Settings > Tap the + button > Add User-Defined Setting
The key is either INCLUDED_SOURCE_FILE_NAMES or EXCLUDED_SOURCE_FILE_NAMES
The value is a space separated list of file paths
See reference:
http://lists.apple.com/archives/xcode-users/2009/Jun/msg00153.html
I have a project that won't build because the compiler (?) can't seem to find the .h files. I have tried using the full path, relative path and setting the Project Search Paths (both Header and User Header) and nothing seems to work. What I find very strange is even with the full path it gives an error: No such file or directory (the file does indeed exist in the specified path).
What could be the problem?
import statements:
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import <zxing/common/Counted.h>
#import <zxing/Result.h>
#import <zxing/BinaryBitmap.h>
#import <zxing/Reader.h>
#import <zxing/ResultPointCallback.h>
Headers are located in:
/Users/rolfmarsh/iPhoneCodeLibrary/BarcodeLibrary/zxing-1.6/cpp/core/src/zxing
Header search path is:
$(inherited)
"$(SRCROOT)/zxing/common"
and
/Users/rolfmarsh/iPhoneCodeLibrary/BarcodeLibrary/zxing-1.6/cpp/core/src
Full path of the include files:
/Users/rolfmarsh/iPhoneCodeLibrary/BarcodeLibrary/zxing-1.6/cpp/core/src/zxing/Result.h
I also had quite a bit of pain with ZXing's dependencies. Here's some tips that will hopefully be of assistance to others with similar issues.
This line does an import:
#import <zxing/common/Counted.h>
For the compiler to find Counted.h, the header search path must be specified.
Now, because the import statement will look for Counted.h relative to two subfolders zxing/common, we need to give it the parent folder of zxing.
In this case, the parent folder is going to be something like:
/ .. my full path here ../cpp/core/src/
So, under the src directory you'll find zxing.
How do we configure this in Xcode? Best to do it relatively. Otherwise, the project will fail on a different user's machine.
To do this, we specify a path relative to the project directory. As follows:
$(PROJECT_DIR)/../cpp/core/src
That goes in the Header Search Path of Build Settings for the ZXingWidget target.
The crucial thing with this header path stuff is to specify the relative directory to search from. In our case, we specify search relative to $(PROJECT_DIR). That variable specifies the directory of our subproject ZXingWidget.
Other caveats. Be careful to specify these in the build settings of your target. If you do it at project level you'll still need to specify it at target level using the $(inherited) variable.
Also, don't forget that the build transcript can be very useful. Look at the header paths included with the -I flag.
As a general debugging technique, I like to specify the absolute path in my settings. That gives a clean build and I know that the files can be included, and where they definitely are. Having done that I then use the $(PROJECT_DIR) to specify a relative path.
I am posting this in order to make things simple for newbies like me that are integrating zxing qr reader in their projects and to bring closure to a couple of threads related to zxing integration.
1.
Main thing - Be absolutely sure you have the latest version.
http://zxing.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/
[By now, January 18th, you will have no more issues with that zxing/common/ folder. Easiest fix for this: get the latest code!]
2.
Go to zxing -> iphone -> ZXingWidget.
Drag ZXingWidget.xcodeproj file and drop it onto the root of your Xcode project's "Groups and Files" sidebar.
[you should now have ZXingWidget.xcodeproj listed there and it has to drop down and list it's content]
3.
In the same place, project navigator, select:
Your project file - > Targets -> 'your project name' -> Build phases -> Link binary with libraries.
You should find a folder named 'Workspace'. Add 'libZXingWidget.a' from within.
4.
Still in Build phases, expand Target Dependencies and add ZXingWidget.
5.
Select Build Settings and search for Header Search Paths.
You need to add 2 records to Header Search Paths. You do not need to associate values to User Header Search Paths. You achieve this by double clicking the column on the right. A small popover window will apear. Use the + button to add the first record. Add:
../zxing/iphone/ZXingWidget/Classes
Now use the + button to add the second record. Add:
../zxing/cpp/core/src
These are the values I use. These values work because I use the same folder to host both my project and the zxing folder.
[Be sure to refer your folder properly in case you decide to have a different file structure.]
6.
Go back to Build Phases and add the following ios frameworks required:
AVFoundation
AudioToolbox
CoreVideo
CoreMedia
libiconv
AddressBook
AddressBookUI
7.
Create a set of files (.h&.m) and change it's .m extension to .mm
8.
Test the integration by including the following in the file previously created:
#import <ZXingWidgetController.h>
#import <QRCodeReader.h>
At this point you should run into missing files only if you are not running the latest version. Hope this helps.
Some things to check:
- file permissions
- can you build from the command line using xcodebuild?
I went over many blog posts on how to fix this. This one helped me well.
http://alwawee.com/wordpress/2011/12/01/zxingwidgetcontroller-h-not-found-zxing-installation-problem-solution/
The problem was that header search paths were not properly defined.
So I...
1) Downloaded zxing 2.1
2) From the download I copied: iphone, cpp, objc and readme and pasted in a folder names "zxing"
3) I added the new folder "zxing" to my project (on my mac) not to the xcode app.
4) From the created folder zxing I dragged the zxingwidget.xproje to my xcode project
5) I followed all the steps you find in all the blogs
KEY TO SOLVE THIS
6) I followed this steps for xcode errors https://stackoverflow.com/a/14703794/1881577
7) I followed this steps for header path file errors http://alwawee.com/wordpress/2011/12/01/zxingwidgetcontroller-h-not-found-zxing-installation-problem-solution/
IMPORTANT NOTE: I had to do follow step 7) twice, I had to select the project target and assign header paths, and I had to select the project project and assign header paths.
8) Build zxingwidget project (from the scheme select options)
9) Build Run the project.
Hope this helps other people as well.
