VSProject2.WorkOffline Property
Indicates whether a Web project is working online or offline. When it is working offline, development continues on an offline store of project files, so that the project files on the server are not changed.
Namespace: VSLangProj80
Assembly: VSLangProj80 (in VSLangProj80.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Property WorkOffline As Boolean
bool WorkOffline { get; set; }
property bool WorkOffline {
bool get ();
void set (bool value);
}
abstract WorkOffline : bool with get, set
function get WorkOffline () : boolean
function set WorkOffline (value : boolean)
Property Value
Type: System.Boolean
A boolean value. For Web applications, this property returns true if working offline and false if working online. For local projects, this property returns false.
Remarks
When the project is offline, no attempt is made to write to or access the project's files on the server.
To change the URL of the offline project files, use the OfflineURL property of the Project.Properties collection.
This property may be changed for Web projects only. While this is a read-write property, an error is generated if you attempt to set this property for a local project.
Examples
This example assumes that the first project in the solution is a Visual Basic or Visual C# project. To run this example as an add-in, see How to: Compile and Run the Automation Object Model Code Examples.
