Add a DLL to GAC

[Nelson Xu]

Hi All,
I added a DLL written by VB.NET to GAC. This DLL is
located at C:\LLSI-Tech\GAC in my local computer.

The project(project1) for above DLL is located at
C:\clearcase\payoff.

I add this DLL to my another VB class project(project2) as
an reference from C:\LLSI-Tech\GAC.

However, the path for the DLL changes from C:\LLSI-
Tech\GAC to C:\clearcase\payoff\bin after I rebuild
project2.

Does anybody can tell me what is going on.

Thank you in advance !

You added the assembly to the GAC? Does it show up in c:\windows\asseembly
folder (the GAC)?

Hi,

you may have set the Copy Local property (found under the properties window)
for that dll to true. That implies, for each inclusion of that dll as a
reference to other projects, a separate copy will be created in the
assembly's /bin directory. Set it to False, and there will not be any
copying.
