If I create a dll (myapp)
and myapp project has a reference to another dll on my system (C:\path to
\some.dll)
when I build myapp.dll does it contain everything it needed from the
referenced dll?
so if i copy my dll to someone elses machine i don't have to recreate the
referenced files and paths on the target machine?
should i be able to just copy my one dll to the target machine and it will
run?
thanks

No, you need them all. dll = dynamic link library <> static linking

does the path to the reference have to be the same as what is referenced in
the project?
or can i just copy the dlls into the same folder and the app.dll will find
the ref.dll?
thanks
