VS deploys not usefuyl dll! How to get rid?

B

Beorne

I'm working on a C# compact framework project on win CE. At one point
I added some libraries projects (dll) to the solution that were
originally developed for WinXP. Then Visual Studio started to deploy,
among my exe and my custom dll a lot of system .dll (among others
system.data.sqlxml.dll, system.security.dll, system.deployment.dll and
so on). I toughth this was due to the custom libraries referring
strange things, so I removed all the external referencies to the
libraries and substituted system.dll with the compact framework
version of system.dll.
Now I have not any referencies to "non compact framework" libraries,
but VS2005 on debug continues to deploy a lot of unused dll.
How can I get rid of them? My applications goes very well even if I
delete them, so I know I don't need them. The worst problem is that
all these dll fill up the flash rom space and I have to manually
delete them evey time!
How can I control the deployed dll in VS2005?

In your project properties, check the "References Path" tab. Make sure you
don't have entries here pointing to the desktop framework, delete any
suspect ones.
