Web Developer 2005 - Where has all the code gone ?

I see that the code behind is now a partial class. So where is the code
associated with the server controls declaration etc ?
Is this generated on the fly now, or am I missing something ?

It's in the designer.cs files

Yes
OK, so does it create the designer.cs on the fly when you do a build and
then delete it ?

No - it *creates* the designer.cs file when the aspx and aspx.cs files are
created.
The contents of the designer.cs files is *updated* on the fly...
Server-side controls no longer need to be explicitly declared in your
codebehind class, but you still have complete access to them programmaticall
y.
Fritz Onion's article in MSDN mag explains this:

See Figure 2 and Figure 3 for examples.

Mark,
Thanks for the reply. ( Im probably being dumb) but I cant see this file at
all. I have looked in the websites directory where my web site lives on the
local machine, I have also looked in the projects directory, I have checked
my folder options to enusre that its not hiding the files but it aint there.
I also cant find the dll output file either, this is confusing the hell out
of me. !

Are you using WAP ( Web Application Projects ) ?
If you're not, you'll never see a *.designer.cs or *.designer.vb file.
The *.designer.cs/vb file is a new file used in Web Application Projects
to contain the code that is generated and maintained by Visual Studio for th
e page.
You won't find any dll, either, if you don't use WAP,
unless you publish or pre-compile your app.
Again, Fritz Onion's article helps :

Also, this MSDN article:

giives you the info you need to understand ASP.NET internals.

Apologies - I assumed you were using Web Application Projects, which creates
the designer files - you clearly aren't, so you won't see them...

Again, you won't see one if you're not using WAP until you either publish or
precompile your site...
No worries. Im fairly reasonable with VS2003, but I've got a copy of
'Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition and Im trying to make sense of
it.
