.NET Forum / .NET Framework / New Users / July 2006Using namespace from another project
I have two projects, both build .exe. Project_2 declares an object that is defined in Project_1. At compile time I refer from Project_2 to Project_1 and it makes Project_1 namespace available to Project_2. Project_2 compiles and runs, but at runtime it requires Project_1 executable to be in the same folder. Otherwise it crashes. How can I make it so Project_2.exe runs in a different folder from Project_1.exe? I would prefer not to use GAC. I am using Visual Studio 2005, C#, Windows Forms.

You can edit (in the preferences of your Visual Studio Project B) the pathes it will look through to find such files. I am assuming this is what he is referring to. Add a path to where you want to place Program 1's executable Signaturelucas I did some reasearch and it appears that you are wrong. According to MSDN "At run time, a reference must exist in either the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) or the output path of the project." (look for "How to: Set the Copy Local Property of a Reference"). I tried adding a Reference Path, it didn't help. Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months. There are no hidden fees and no obligation.
