I don't know a lot about c# or Visual Studio and I am working on a c# project, but I don't know the details of it. For example if it's a Desktop project, an Asp.net project, a .Net framework project, or what libraries it has access to.

How can I find this out?

If you right click the project and go to properties it will provide you with the information that you're looking for.

  • @Identicon And create dummy projects for the different types you mentioned then compare their properties / references / project file structures so you can develop an intuition – Novaterata Jun 05 '17 at 15:05
  • Thanks for the tip Novaterata. Bill, could you elaborate on what you mean by "right click the project?" Do you mean the .sln file? – Identicon Jun 05 '17 at 15:09
  • @Identicon Open the solution in Visual Studio and then right click the project in the solution explorer panel. – Bill Jun 05 '17 at 15:10
  • Thanks Bill. I see that I'm working on a console application, but I'm not sure if this is the information I was looking for. I remember I tried compiling this program on another windows machine a few days ago, I think a Desktop Application, and it didn't have access to System.Text and many other things. – Identicon Jun 05 '17 at 15:17
  • @Identicon Would you mind sharing your source code? It sounds like you are missing references to System.Text. – Bill Jun 05 '17 at 15:19
  • Oh, it was actually that I had not created a console application before, but some other kind. Thanks for your help! – Identicon Jun 05 '17 at 15:34
