Combining telerik scripts and custom scripts into single file

[sonal]

Hi,
    I want all the Telerik scripts and custom scripts (non-telerik) to be combined into one file using the RadScriptManager and hence single request.
Do i need to combine all the custom js files into an assembly and then use the <asp:ScriptReference>?  Is it  not possible to combine the custom scripts without adding them to an assembly?

Thanks
Sonal

Telerik ScriptManager works as the asp ScriptManager as far as I know. I found this topic in the docs which explains how it works:

Hi,
     I had already tried the following:

<telerik:RadScriptManager id=””runat=””>
 <Scripts>
  <asp:ScriptReference name=””Assembly=””Path=”/MyVirtualLocation/MyFile.js”>
 </Scripts>
</telerik:RadScriptManager>

But it gives error as:
Resource not found in assembly "Telerik.Web.UI"

Thanks

Hi Sonal,

Currently RadScriptManager does not combine scripts, identified by a path. The control combines only scripts, which are added as embedded resources to an external assembly. This functionality is similar to RadStyleSheetManager's external stylesheet combination, described in the RadStyleSheetManager documentation article.
