VS2003 deployment project "loses" a reference
-
Hy all, I have an application made up by an executable and several dlls (VB.NET 2003); I have created a deployment project in a different solution in which I added the executable: Visual Studio recognized all the referencies (either standard Microsoft, ActiveReports and "my" own libraries). Curiosly, after a long time, the project lost one of the references; in particular, it "suddenly" lost the reference to one of my libraries, and I don't remember having modified the deploymnent project. I had to manually re-include to make it working. I looked at the .vdproj file and the re-inserted library now appears with the IsDependency property set to FALSE (and that's sound logical, since I re-inserted it manually). Does anyone have an idea about the reasons for such a weird behavior (loosing the reference, I mean)? Thanks in advance to anyone will help.

Hmmm I would love to know how to replicate that actually. I've had problems in the opposite direction - deployment projects insistant on re-adding a dependancy that I've excluded. (Specifically the wrong version of EnvDTE) :S

Thanks a lot, anyway. At least, now I know someone has actually read the message (I'm starting to cry:)...)
