Only a few of the Core modules are distributed as WSP modules, which means they do not have compiled assemblies, but rather source is distributed with the PA and is compiled at runtime.
Two of these are the Text/HTML module and the LINKS modules.
If I wanted to inherit the Text/HTML module to extend on it, if it was distributed using WAP (Web application projects) and had a compiled assembly distributed with it, I could reference the .dll and inherit the class.
I can't do this, however, because there is no compiled assembly reference providing a class to inherit.
How would I go about inheriting the DotNetNuke.Modules.Html.HtmlModule class to extend upon it when I cannot create a reference to a compiled assembly? Is it possible that I include the .vb file in my project to provide the namespace and then simply not deploy it with the module, hoping it will find a compiled version at the time that it runs?
If my question does not make any sence, please let me know and I'll try to clerify it further.
