Parameters

  • bstrDestFolder

  • bstrDestUNCPath
    Type: String

    Required. The UNC path for file-sharing if the project to be copied is using file-share access. Use the empty string if the project is using FrontPage Server Extensions access.

  • bstrUsername

    Required. The user's network login ID.

  • bstrPassword
    Type: String

    Required. The user's password. 

Remarks

This method, used to copy Web projects, provides more functionality than a simple xcopy of the project files, but less functionality than deployment. The CopyProject method will make the appropriate changes to IIS and the project folder on the Web server, so that development can continue as usual on the project. Deployment provides more features for setting up a Web, including creating databases and message queues.

This method copies only Web projects. Web projects are projects created from the ASP.NET Web application, XML Web Service, and Empty Web Project templates in the New Project dialog box. If the project is a local project, an exception is raised.

If the destination folders or files already exist, they will be overwritten.

Examples

[Visual Basic]

' Macro editor
' Copies the first project in the solution.
' This procedure could fail if the first project is not a Visual Basic
' or Visual C# project, or if the project is not a Web application.
Imports VSLangProj
Public Sub CopyWeb()
   Try
      Dim proj As VSLangProj.VSProject = _
         CType(DTE.Solution.Projects.Item(1).Object, VSLangProj.VSProject)
      proj.CopyProject("https://Localhost/Copy_of_Project", "", _
         prjCopyProjectOption.prjRunFiles, "", "")
   Catch ex As System.Exception
      MsgBox("Cannot copy Web project.")
   End Try
End Sub
