Generate ASPX file at runtime.

Hi!

I must generate webform and his controls at runtime(ASPX and Code
behind). I am able to create the codebehind file with CodeDom but
can't create the aspx file.

How can I create at runtime aspx file and synchronize it with the
codebehind file.

Thanks

Jeff

your approach may not quite work, when asp.net first hits an aspx page, it
parses it and builds a dll in a temp dir and loads it (much like you are
doing with the codedom). if when you build the codebehind, you build a dll
for it, the dynamic aspx page could compile against it. if you regen the
same webforms, the appdomain is dumped, and the pages are recompiled.

Sorry I miss explain clearly the runtime context I was talking about.
The .aspx file must be creating by an addin to VS.NET 2003 and not
during WEBApplication execution. The .aspx and codebehind file will be
creating during design time in VS.Net. The addin will be embedded in
VS.Net 2003 and will be executing by the ‘File‘ | ‘New Project'…|
‘Project Types: Visual C# Project' menu item.

The addin will made that work:
- Create an empty WEB project base on Microsoft templates.
- Add programmatically references to my custom assembly in the
project.
- Allow the user to add custom WEBForm (Right-click on the project
node in the Solution Explorer).

So when the user will add a custom WEBForm I must create the
codebehind file and the .aspx file(with WEBControls) and synchronize
it. How can I do that? With the CodeDOM class I can create the
codebehind file but I don't know how to create .aspx part of the
WEBForm.

Thanks.
