ASPNETWebApplicationScott Guthrie has announced that Web Application Product 1.0 is available. Other than being a final version of the project we’ve come to love in VS 2003 it introduces a couple of new feature not available in any of the preview releases:

  • Team Build Support with VSTS: You can now perform automated and command-line builds with VS 2005 Web Application Projects and VSTS
  • Resource support with the App_GlobalResources directory: Strongly typed resource classes are now automatically generated for resource files defined with the ASP.NET app_globalresources directory (allowing you to program against these directly).  You can also alternatively define .resx files within the code-behind assembly of the project itself.
  • Custom Build Tool Action Support: You can now configure and define custom build tool action support for file-types within a project.  This was missing in the previous release candidate and prevented some third-party utilities from working.
  • Edit and Continue Support: You can now make code updates that apply immediately to applications while the debugger is attached and running (see walkthrough below for details).  This is supported with both VB and C# projects. 

Download Web Application Project 1.0. Be sure to uninstall any older version of the software you might have installed.
