[mono-vb] XSP-ASP.NET-VB.NET

[Kornél Pál]

.aspx files are compiled anyway but ff you have no inline code in your .aspx 
files then you can use any language you want because only rendering code is 
generated.

The default ASP.NET language for Mono is C#, so if you specify no langauge 
then C# is used.

This means that you override this default setting either in Web.config or in 
the .aspx files (and probably both):
<compilation defaultLanguage="vb" ... />
<%@ Page Language="VB" ... %>

You should replace VB with C# to make .aspx files compile.

Kornel,

Thanks for the info, its becoming a bit more clearer.  So if I have a
VB.NETaspx file and the DLL that goes with it, how do I make xsp look
@ the DLL
instead of attempting to compile the code?  I see that the first line of the
aspx file indicates the name of .vb file that contains the code-behind, if
delete this line no compilation is attempted but code-behind logic in the
DLL never get used.

Thanks,
Alfredo
