[mono-android] Enhancement: aresgen.exe and TFS.

[Milligan, Ryan]

Files that are generated automatically as part of building shouldn't be checked in. Lots of source control systems mark files that aren't checked out as read-only. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if TFS lets you exclude files that are part of the project from the source control repository. I think the right answer is probably for Monodroid to generate Resources.Designer.cs in the obj folder (much like the various .g.cs files that WPF generates as part of the build process, for example) so that it won't go in the repository at all. This sort of temporary file generated by the build process is exactly what the obj folder is for.

Sorry, I won´t cumber the monodroid team. It´s more a question than an enhancement. My question is answered now.

To be honest, I'd say this is more of a TFS problem then a MonoDroid problem.  It truly annoys me to no end that TFS does this in the first place.  I'd suggest that the MonoDroid team shouldn't be spending their precious resources yak shaving activities to get around TFS issues.

Everytime I check out the project from the Team Foundation Server and somethings different in the resources, aresgen.exe runs into an System.UnauthorizedAccessException because the file "Resources.Designer.cs" is read only.

So I have to check out the file "Resources.Designer.cs" and compile again.

Kind regards,
Carlo
