Get publication path when publishing Azure

Question

I followed this thread to create a virtual directory in Azure Cloud Services: Windows Azure creating virtual directory to local storage.

It works fine but I'm not able to get "localResourcePath" with the path Azure located the files.

Where do I have to set "MyResource"?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

"MyResource" is a LocalStorage resource you define in your CSDEF file - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/ee758711.aspx.

You would add the following to your CSDEF (changing sizeInMB as appropriate):

<LocalResources>
  <LocalStorage name="MyResource" cleanOnRoleRecycle="false" sizeInMB="1000" />
</LocalResources>
