Global Import Aliasing in .NET
- by Josh Stodola
Using import aliasing in a single class, we can reference class library namespaces by assigning our own custom alias like this:
Imports Db = Company.Lib.Data.Objects
And then we are able to reference the classes inside of Company.Lib.Data.Objects by using the Db alias that we assigned.
Is it possible to do this at the global level so that the alias is applied to the entire solution instead of the given file?
Currently, we are working with web applications, so I was hoping we could add something to web.config, but I am also interested in whether or not this is possible with windows forms, console apps, and/or class libraries.
