BuildManager Class
Provides a set of methods to help manage the compilation of an ASP.NET application.
Namespace: System.Web.Compilation
Assembly: System.Web (in System.Web.dll)
The BuildManager type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | BatchCompilationEnabled | Gets or sets a value that indicates whether batch compilation is enabled. |
| CodeAssemblies | Gets a list of assemblies built from the App_Code directory. |
| IsPrecompiledApp | Gets a value that specifies whether the application is precompiled. |
| IsUpdatablePrecompiledApp | Gets a value that specifies whether the application is precompiled as updatable. |
| TargetFramework | Gets the target version of the .NET Framework for the current Web site. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| AddCompilationDependency | Specifies a string that represents a dependency that the build manager uses to help determine if a clean build is required. |
| AddReferencedAssembly | Adds an assembly to the application's set of referenced assemblies. |
| CreateCachedFile | Creates a cached file. |
| CreateInstanceFromVirtualPath | Processes a file, given its virtual path, and creates an instance of the result. |
| Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetCachedBuildDependencySet(HttpContext, String) | Returns a build dependency set for a virtual path if the path is located in the ASP.NET cache. |
| GetCachedBuildDependencySet(HttpContext, String, Boolean) | Returns a build dependency set for a virtual path if the path is located in the ASP.NET cache, even if the content is not current. |
| GetCompiledAssembly | Compiles a file into an assembly using the specified virtual path. |
| GetCompiledCustomString | Compiles a file, given its virtual path, and returns a custom string that the build provider persists in cache. |
| GetCompiledType | Compiles a file, given its virtual path, and returns the compiled type. |
| GetGlobalAsaxType | Gets an object that represents the compiled type for the Global.asax file. |
| GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetObjectFactory | Gets an object factory for the specified virtual path. |
| GetReferencedAssemblies | Returns a list of assembly references that all page compilations must reference. |
| GetType() | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetType(String, Boolean) | Finds a type in the top-level assemblies or in assemblies that are defined in configuration, and optionally throws an exception on failure. |
| GetType(String, Boolean, Boolean) | Finds a type in the top-level assemblies, or in assemblies that are defined in configuration, by using a case-insensitive search and optionally throwing an exception on failure. |
| GetVirtualPathDependencies | Provides a collection of virtual-path dependencies for a specified virtual path. |
| ReadCachedFile | Reads a cached file. |
| ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
The BuildManager class manages the process of compiling assemblies and pages for an application. It is a sealed class and cannot be inherited.
BuildManager contains static members that provide information about the compiled assemblies.
