Where Does Visual Studio Remember Which Folders are "Namespace Providers"?

Question

OK, this may be really simple, but it is Friday and it has been a long week. I can't seem to find an answer for the life of me.

Basically, I have a project in which the Namespace Provider property has been set. When a colleague gets the up to date code from the repository, these properties do not seem to appear at all? (i.e. there is no "Namespace Provider" entry in the properties window)..

What could be causing this? I am thinking he may need an update for VS2008 or something? I have never had issues with this/like this before!

Ideas? :)

Thanks a lot!

Update

We have now verified that the machine has VS2008 SP1 - Still no dice :(

.. and we have completely deleted all the files in the folder and done another "GET" from the repo (crappy VSS) - I have a distinct feeling that there are some residual "web site" project files that were not deleted from the repo, and are causing VS to misinterpret the project type somehow..

Will let you know once I can prove :)

Answer 1

I always thought that Namespace Provider was a ReSharper property.
