Can you add a DBML file to an existing Azure Web Job project?

Abhijit Shrikhande 317

I created a new Azure Web Job project using VS 2019. When I go to add a LINQ2SQL class it hangs the application. I have waited for 30 minutes at a time and nothing happens.

If I create a .NET console-based application, it lets me add the class. So what is happening in the background? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks In Advance!

Hello anonymous user, Thanks for the question!

Please ensure VS and Azure WebJob SDK is up-to-date.
(If Azure development workload is not available. Add the workload by selecting Tools > Get Tools and Features_
Also, review the namespace declaration for correctness.

Just to highlight, For Visual Studio to deploy a WebJobs-enabled .NET Framework console app project, it copies runtime files to the appropriate folder in the web app (App_Data/jobs/continuous for continuous WebJobs and App_Data/jobs/triggered for scheduled or on-demand WebJobs).

Visual Studio adds the following items to a WebJobs-enabled project:

The Microsoft.Web.WebJobs.Publish NuGet package.
A webjob-publish-settings.json file that contains deployment and scheduler settings.

Please review this sample.
