How to change the wsp name through Visual Studio

Hi All,

In my current post , we are going to see how we can  change the package name (wsp name) through Visual Studio.

Situation or Scenario

Let us explain you  a situation where you have created Project with name XYZ. After Completion of all hardcore development you came across a situation where you need to change the wsp name if it is not matching with client naming standards. Your solution name is the wsp name, so if you rename the Project, you need to change the all the references.

Instead of that we can only change the wsp name by using the below procedure.

Step 1:

Open Package file from the Solution Explorer.

Step 2:

Generally, It will be same as our solution Name. Rename the Package Name.

Step 3:

Now, build and deploy your solution , before that we need to retract the solution .

Thanks.
