Deploy Problem

Hi,

I have a mobile device project which is referenced to another project.

both projects includes some external files.

When deployed these files are included in the bin folder but when i deploy only the files from the mobile device project is deployed to the device.

how can i configure so that it deploys files that is included in reference projects as well

regards,

Click on the file and in it's properties and set "Copy to Output Directory" value to "Copy Always or Copy if Newer" - This will make it part of output and VS will deploy it to device.

Add all files you need to deploy from the first project to the second project.

I'm not suggesting making copies of these files in another project, I'm suggesting adding original files. You would only have one copy of each file so if it's changed in one project it will be changed in another because it's the very same file. To do so choose “Add as link” instead of normal "Add "in “Add existing item” dialog.

Thanks,

the problem is files that i have to add is xml configuration files. i have lots of them spreaded in few folders. is there a way to add the folder itself and not individual files because in course of the development i remove or add files. Adding files as link as you suggested helps but still i have to modify add or remove if i add new files or remove files in the first project.

thanks again,

thanks.

i can do that but i have to change the files constantly and if something is changed in the first project then i have to synchronize it all the time in both projects.

any other better solution
