Multple DLL Installations

Postby glenharvy » Wed Jun 28, 2017 9:07 pm

Hi,

I have noticed that dll's that I have entered into the Assemblies section and marked to be installed into the GAC are also being included in differing data folders resulting in the same dll being compressed several times into the same web distributable.

Is there some way to avoid this?

Thanks.

Dear Glenharvy,

honestly, I am not able to replicate the same. I just tried with adding some Assemblies to a test project and the generated Web Media Block contains only a single copy of each DLL.

Are you sure that you are not including those dlls multiple times? For example; you may have used both "Install Files" and "Install Assembly" commands for the same dll.

Thanks for your prompt response.
I've double checked and IA is correct with the duplicated dll's located in separate resource directories for the several executionables included in my project. I'll move them to a central location if possible.
