There's probably a very logic answer to this question. If I update a controller and publish it to my webhost, the updated part doesn't seem to work, it looks like it didn't update the controller. However, when I publish my whole project everything works fine.

Not a big issue but publishing your whole site for just a little controller update seems like wasted time. Any explanations?

    You don't publish code itself to a web server. When you build your project, it is the files in `bin/` directory that matter. – nomad Jul 25 '14 at 14:07

    you can update only static files (`.css`, `.js`, `.html`) without republishing. The `.cs` code is compiled so you need to republish the application or build the project and copy the `.dll` from the `/bin/` folder. – Cristi Pufu Jul 25 '14 at 14:10

I think this will work

  • first Rebuild project on VS

  • then replace YourProjectName.dll and YourProjectName.dll.config on bin file to your host

  • then replace the controller you want
