ok. So, by default Output path is set to bin\ folder and the solution is
doing the build on say "Release" configuration. By setting output path to
some folder other then say bin\, will it copy all .aspx etc.. for web
application.
Basically I am looking for what publishing a site does from MSBUILD. I want
to then take all that content and zip it up so that I can do a OnceClick
deployment.
Also, what does web deployment project will give me and the benefits of
using it with Web Application type of projects(not web site).
I can use xcopy but I want to avoid having to worry about excluding .cs file
and the others that I dont want on my web server.
