references don't get updated...

I have a project, in this project I have a reference to a shared assembly.
All works well, but when I update my shared assembly, the project isn't
updated with this new version of the assembly. I have tried manually adding
the *.dll.refresh files (empty files) but that doesn't help.
I know I can remove and than re-add the reference, but it's not 1 reference
and for multiple projects.

Anyone know how to restore this ?

TIA,
Jurjen.

maybe u could change the property "Copy Local" to false, and clean the
project?

Martin,

I have set Copy Local to false, but as soons as I remote the dll from the
bin-directory, the project won't compile.
I have now added a reference path to the various projects, that seems to do
the trick, at least for now..

thanks for your help.

Jurjen.

Hello Jurjen,

seems that u developing on Windows 2003 server with ShadowCopying turned
on, or it's the web application

for the first case turn shadowCopying in the properties of your hard drive,
in second case restart IIS
