VS Keeping a DLL Reference and Preventing a Rebuild Messages   Related Types This message was discovered on ASPFriends.com 'aspngvs' list. Steve Mark -- Moved from [aspngfreeforall] to [aspngvs] by Terri Morton <Click here to reveal e-mail address> -- Here's a good one: One of the DLL's (of 17 in the current solution) stays "open" after the build, so that when we go to rebuild it we get this message: Performing main compilation... error CS0016: Could not write to output file 'c:\foo\foo.dll' -- 'The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. ' If we build in release mode we get this message. If we switch to Debug, then the release dll is freed, but the debug dll is held. Switching back to release frees the debug dll up, but then reopens the release dll. There is no difference that we can see in the project settings between the two dll's. Has anyone else seen this? Steve Mark Director of Engineering vCity Inc. Reply to this message...        Steve Mark That's what we pretty much found we had to do also, but it's not a viable solution. Too much overhead while developing. And it happens on only one project out of 17, so there's got to be something going on. Steve [Original message clipped] Reply to this message...        We ran into the problem several times. There is a knowledge base artical on it, but dont have a link to it. Basically its a "bug" that if any project other then the primary web project is of 64k (think this is the right size) it will have this problem. The supposed work around for this is to make sure that all your references are project references, however this has not helped us out. Basically you will most likely need to split the problem project into 2 or more projects. -----Original Message----- From: Steve Mark [mailto:Click here to reveal e-mail address] Sent: Wednesday, August 07, 2002 9:25 AM To: aspngvs Subject: [aspngvs] Re: VS Keeping a DLL Reference and Preventing a Rebuild That's what we pretty much found we had to do also, but it's not a viable solution.

Sure enough, that DLL is the only one over 64K (it's at 69K). Odd bug. Thanks, Steve [Original message clipped] Reply to this message...        Martin Garins If someone has the url to this KB article that would great. I have a large solution with several references both Project and file based and they are over 64K in size and I do not run into this issue. I would like to read the article just in case it starts appearing. Thanks.
