Project References?

[Dave Veeneman]

I know there must be a simple answer to this question. I just split a
Windows application into two projects; the original application and a class
library. I moved a number of classes to the class library project. I added a
reference to the class library project to the original application, but I
still can't reference the classes in the class library from those in the
original application.

What am I missing? Thanks.

library. I moved a number of classes to the class library project. I added a

did you add 'using' (for C#) or 'Imports' (for VB.NET) statements?

I assume that the library classes are grouped under certain namespaces
right? (or maybe one namespace). If for instance that namespace name is
MyNamespace and your class name is MyClass, then to reference it, you
either have to write:

MyNamespace.MyClass.

or

using MyNamespace; (Imports MyNamespace in VB.NET)

MyClass.

You still have to add references to the project as well.

Thanks. Namespaces are fine; unfortunately, that's not the problem.

Found the problem. The reference wasn't effective until I had compiled the
library. Once I debugged and got a successful compile, the references worked
fine.
