We have a large ASP (classic ASP) application and we would like to convert it to .NET in order to work on further releases. It makes no sense continuing to use ASP as it is obsolete, and we don’t want to rewrite it from scratch (Joel Spolsky tells you why).
The basic difference between ASP and ASP.NET is that ASP.NET is compiled whereas ASP is interpreted whereas. This implies that since ASP mainly uses VBScript, when an ASP page is executed, it is interpreted. On the other hand, ASP.NET uses.NET languages, such as C# and VB.NET, which are compiled to Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL).
I’m converting an old classic asp website to asp.net.
I am a .Net developer that has been tasked with upgrading a classic asp website to asp.net. The website is currently running on luck and bubble gum but there is not enough time or money to stop progress and do a full rewrite. Of course I will still need to be able to deliver new features while I am upgrading.
The ASP to ASP.NET v1.x Migration
Assistant is designed to help you
convert ASP pages and applications to
ASP.NET. It does not make the
conversion process completely
automatic, but it will speed up your
project by automating some of the
steps required for migration.
OK so here’s the situation. I’ve got a classic ASP website running inside an MVC 4 application. I need the classic ASP website to be able to get a key from the appsettings section of the web.config file.
We are replacing an old classic asp website with a .NET 3.5 solution.
This might be a crazy question (I’m somewhat new to ASP.NET). But is it possible to mix ASP.NET code with classic ASP e.g. embedded a form created in ASP.NET in a classic ASP page?
I’m converting ASP classic page to ASP.NET. What’s the proper way of including files with .inc extension to aspx pages?
my application is developed on classic asp, but also uses asp.net as I am migrating the application on .Net. Its using SQL server as database and hosted on Windows server 2003.
