I work for a company that has a web based product.
The product is written using ASP and is hosted on IIS.
Currently to access the product you would go to the login page at:
http://companyname.com/clientname
Where <clientname> is a virtual directory in IIS and maps to the physical location on the server harddisk c:\clientname
I am trying to create some process, so that programmers can access the code using an IDE such as Visual Interdev and the code source will be stored in a repository such as Visual Source Safe.
The problem is that Interdev seems to only recognise "web projects" and so therefore I can't connect to a virtual directory. i.e I have to connect Interdev to a webserver not a directory.
Given that I cannot change the fact that virtual directories are being used, what is then the base way to create a web development environment that supports good development processes etc.. Is there a way I can connect to a virtual directory using an IDE ? or is there another way around this ?
Thanks
Simon
