R – SubSonic deployment and changing connectionstrings

Yes, you should only have to change the setting in your web.config and make sure that your web app reloads. (it should almost always reload when the web.config is changed or replaced but I have seen times when it won't, you can then restart it in IIS or try editing the web.config locally)

You shouldn't have to rebuild

Of course,

The instant I post a question I am able to find the answer. The trick is when you are generating your DAL in SubCommander and you must specify a /lang vb argument. My final arguments list looked like this:

generate /out DAL /lang vb

Then it gives me my DAL code in VB.net and that works just fine with everything I've got.
