I have noticed an issue when converting my references to use Nuget Packages. When I make changes to the views they do not show up in the browser.

Test Steps:

• I have installed a fresh installation of Sitefinity using the Project Manager.
• I drag in a News widget for testing. Make the changes to \ResourcePackages\Bootstrap\MVC\Views\News\List.NewsList.cshtml
• I refresh the browser and the changes show up. (All working fine)
• I then update the whole solution to use Nuget Packages.
• Make changes to the same file
• The changes do not show up.
• If i build the solution they then show up.
• So this means any time i make changes to the view file i would need to build the solution in order to see the changes on the website. (Which isnt how it should be working)

After some investigation I found if I disabled the Feather Razor Precompilation the changes would appear without building the solution.

I did this by:

• \packages\Telerik.Sitefinity.Feather.1.5.470.0\build\Telerik.Sitefinity.Feather.targets
• Comment out the RazorCodeGen note.

ie.

<!-- Please uncomment this in case of using Feather Razor precompilation <RazorCodeGen ProjectRoot="$(MsBuildProjectDirectory)\$(FeatherResourcePackagesFolderName)\%(FeatherRazorSrcFiles.PackageName)\" FilesToPrecompile="@(FeatherRazorSrcFiles)" CodeGenDirectory="$(RazorViewsCodeGenDirectory)$(FeatherResourcePackagesFolderName)\%(FeatherRazorSrcFiles.PackageName)" RootNamespace="$(RootNamespace).$(FeatherResourcePackagesFolderName).%(FeatherRazorSrcFiles.PackageName)"> <Output TaskParameter="GeneratedFiles" ItemName="FeatherRazorOutputFiles" /> </RazorCodeGen> -->

I then build the solution. The changes show up without me having to build the solution.

Any idea why this is? Am i doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Edin
