Possible to change ProjectLanguage?

[Paul Ricco]

I've been working on a project and when I first added a coded step it asked for the language and I chose VB.  I've now created a number of tests but I'd like the project language to now be C#.  Is it possible to change the language for the project?  If it isn't, will it be a problem if a dev delivers some C# webaii code for me to use?

Hi Paul Ricco,

Unfortunately it is not technically possible to mix VB.NET and C# within the same project. Not even full blown Visual Studio can do that (though you can have different project using different languages within the same solution).

My recommendation at this point, to reuse as much as you can, is to:

1. Create a brand new project
2. Copy the .aii and .resx files from the old project and add those files to the new project
3. Add a new code behind file to the tests that had code behind in the old project. Here you'll be able to select C# as your language
4. Rewrite your old VB code into C# in the new project.
5. You'll need to drag and drop the new custom coded steps to the right sequence location in the Steps panel.

OK, I had a feeling that was going to be the answer.  It's not as bad as it could've been though!
