So I have a website project, which I precompile when I publish.
I have a question, when I need to make a small change to the deployed site, do I have to rebuild, re-publish and deploy the entire website structure again, or can I just copy the modified aspx page and the bin directory?
Please let me know!
Thanks guys!
It is going to depend on how you did the precompiling of the site.
According to MSDN, if you did a precompile for deployment, the process takes aspx files and processes any internal code in them, so you will need to recompile everything.
If you did a precompile for deployment and update, the aspx files are not taken into consideration, so provided all you did was some UI changes, you can push the updated aspx file up without issue.
