Hello!

I was following this tutorial https://doc.dynamicweb.com/training-certification/t3-platform-developer/t3-platform-developer/3-3-extending-ecommerce and it tells me to create a file, but where do I create a file? In Files? Maybe I'm stupid but I can't seem to find where you are saying it. 

 

Best regards, Oscar

For those examples, you need to use Visual Studio, create a Class Library project and then add references to the various Dynamicweb assemblies that are needed. Then you can create new files by right-clicking the project and choosing Add | New Item | Class. You then need to compile your code and deploy the resulting DLL to your site. So, you can't just simply create a C# file on the server directly.

Hope this helps,

Imar

Hey Imar,

Thanks for your help but some things are still unclear. How do I compile my code and deploy the dll to my site? Do I publish the whole solution, including the project including the Files folder as well? Because I can't simply publish the class library. Is there another way?

And then where do I put my dll? Do I just create a reference to it like every other dynamicweb dll or do I import it from the adminpage somehow? Just making sure before I do something crazy.

 

Best regards, Oscar

Hi Oscar

What is your background - have you ever developed anything in Visual Studio - web projects with MVC or anything? Just to know where you are coming from.

Yes, I have an MVC background. 

Just after I posted this I realized that when I build the class library a dll appears in its bin folder. Is that it? I'm so rarelly inside there so I forgot about it.
