Best practices for referencing 3rd party assemblies

Question

I have been wondering what are best practices when it comes to referencing 3rd party assemblies. A while ago I asked a question \"Dependencies and references: what exactly shoul

Answer 1

If i have to deal with libraries that aren't registered in the GAC, I use the following method:

• Make a folder "Libs" with all third party libraries and their dependencies in it
• Reference the ones I need
• Create a post-build action that copies all the files in the "Libs" folder to the "bin/debug" (or release) folder

If you don't know the dependencies, you can use Dependency Walker.
