Tuning Off Code behind in VS.NET

[ghesse]

Hello,

I was wondering if any of you know how to turn off the default code behind mode that Visual Studio .NET has set up.

Thanks,

I think all you have to do is get rid of this part from the page directive:

Codebehind="CodeBehindFile.aspx.vb Inherits="Application.Class

Yes, that would do it, but I'm asking if there's a way to stop them from autogenerating the codebehind files and putting all that information in the aspx file itself.

I'm not sure, but I gotta ask:

Why would you WANT to turn off code behind? Are you writing all your apps inline?!

No, the entire application is not inline.

I have a base code behind file that I want to use for the majority of pages in a component of my application (reporting). Some of the methods are overridable but I don't want a lot of extra .cs files cluttering up my project. So if there was way when I added a new webform to the project where that extra .cs file wasn't generated and I was given the nice auto generated template from microsoft I would be a happy little programmer again.

A member here, stsuing, had a great suggestion a few threads ago about how to create a base class that pages could be inherited from (so common functions could still be available without alot of extra files).

You can read the thread here: thread855-627093

Sounds like it *might* be what you're looking for.
