Pregunta
I am referring to third party assemblies in my running assembly. All these third party assemblies are in some Library folder and I am directly adding the reference from the library folder.
However, when I build my running assembly, it copies those files physically from library folder to its own debug/bin folder.
Now, I have another project which copies all the files from my running assembly's debug/bin folder to its own folder called "Plugins.". The problem here is that All the third party assemblies which were initially copied from library folder to the debug/bin folder are getting copied with it.
I do not want that to happen. How can I stop these third party libraries from getting copied in all the places in my solution?
