Where are the libraries located in C#?
-
Hi, when you want to reuse a library (a managed code DLL file), you must “add a reference” and Visual Studio will include the DLL in your new project and copy it to the approapriate location. Copying the file yourself would not be sufficient. :)

Hi Luc. When you say reference do you mean add "using Engine3" to my code? If I did that then it still needs to know where to find Engine.dll, maybe your referring to something else. Brian

There is a menu item that says either “add ...” or “add reference”, it may be a context menu for your project in the “solution pane”. Look around and you will find it. :)

I think I found it as Reference Manager. I have a choice of Solution under Projects or Solution under Shared Projects to browse for the dll file.There is also 'Browse recent' but I don't think that's the right one to use. Brian

Hopefully this time I appear as BrianTheLion Brian

Opps I see what you mean. It won't let me change to BrianTheLion (says it's taken) so BriainTheLion well have to do.

The details vary for different versions of Visual Studio. The dialog you want is called "Add Reference" in VS2008, and "Reference Manager" in VS2015, I don't know for other versions (VS2019 has been made available just now). And I never used the "shared projects" feature. :)

It should be BrianTheLoin. It may have picked up Brain from my computer. When the tech installed the operating system he typed in Brain instead of Brian by mistake. Brian
And now you have BriainTheLion! :laugh:

Hi Eddy. I just want to use some of the classes within Engine3.dll in a new project. So I need to copy Engine.dll from my old project over to my new project but don't know where the destination is to put Engine3.dll Brian
The assembly would need to become part of the project; easiest way to do so is to create a "bin" folder (or similar) and drop them all there, with "Copy to target" to true. When building, the assemblies would be copied to the build-folder.

Thanks Eddy, I'll keep that in mind. Brian

Hi Luc. I'm using the 2015 version of Visual Studio. Do you know if it's still possible to download the 2015 version should something happen to my 2015 version of Visual Studio? I'm told that there are errors in latest version of Visual Studio. Brian
