C# - adding a References directory to my project that is called "bin" just like in games installs?

i would like to add a "bin" directory (just like开发者_运维问答 in games install directories) that will include all the non-default Assemblies (only assemblies i add, and not things like System.Windows.Forms)

If I am understanding your question correctly, what you are looking for is post-build events.

This article does a great job of summing them up:

I used them awhile back to do something similar to what you are asking (where I wanted certain compiled assemblies to exist in a folder besides bin and debug).

Hope this helps!

i know its very old thread. but, adding answer if anybody looking into this.

• Add reference from anywhere on hard drive.
• click on reference go to
• properties -> copy to local -> set to true if false

so that visual studio will copy file to bin while building your. project
