On .NET projects I am sharing with others we have decided to put our local
assemblies and executables in a common relative path to our project files
while testing. In order for this to work, sharing the project files on
machines with different absolute directory setups, we need to set some of
the references in our projects to this relative path. While the dialog for
adding the references find the assembly when I specify a relative path, it
looks like the IDE is keeping absolute paths to the references. This will
not work for others whose relative path to the current project will be the
same but whose absolute path may be to a different dirtectory structure. Is
there a way around this common problem, or is the IDE actually storing
relative paths to references even though I am seeing an absolute path in the
reference property page ?
