Well, this is a little tip about deploying a BizTalk assembly quickly and easily without having to unbind, undeploy, redeploy, rebind and all that wonderful stuff.
If you recompile a BizTalk assembly that does not affect the current bindings then all you need to do is the following:
- Open a view onto the GAC by clicking Start->Run and then typing assembly
- Compile BizTalk assembly
- Drag and drop the compiled assembly from the bin\Development folder (we're developing, right?) into the assembly view window
- Restart BizTalk NT service from BizTalk Administration snap-in, Services snap-in or the command line using net stop
It really is as simple as that!
