Programmatically start an asp.net integrated webserver with visual studio files


I'm not sure what keywords to google for, so i'm gonna ask SO.

I have an asp.net website which host a database, wcf dll and silverlight application. I would like to create an .exe file to automatically run an integrated webserver with the application root being the project folder of where my asp.net files are.

Basically what I want to do is run the project in localhost with 1 click without starting up visual studio. Starting up the webserver, browser and redirecting to that localhost url.

The computer I will distribute this to may not have visual studio installed.


Solution

  • I decided to go with Cassina found here. WebDev.WebServer.exe was built on that.
