How to deploy dlls included in a project that is not the startup project.

I've 5 projects and in 2 of them I have added some dll I need to copy to the
handheld (add existing item).
When I build and deploy the solution these files are not copied to the
device: is there a workaround?
Thanks,
Luigi.

Hello BLUE" blue,

Did you set "Copy Local = true" into the properties of referred component
in VS IDE?

Hi,

A fast workaround would be just to include these dll in the final app and
mark them as content, I have a similar escenario and they always get copied
(everything marked as content is)

Most probably he does P/invoke those dlls ,so they will not be copied along.
The dll resulting of the project will be.

Hello Ignacio Machin ( .NET/ C# MVP )" machin TA laceupsolutions.com,

Yep, it could be,
so the alternative solution is just use the post-build action to copy them
to the desired location
