Hello, I Have a project A that has a reference to Z.dll. The reference has set the &quot;Local Copy&quot; property to true. When I build the project A it has inside the bin folder the Z.dll copies. Everything fine.<br />

Then I have a project B that has a project reference to the project A. When I build the project B I have not the Z.dll copied at the bin folder. Is this the expected result? I'm missing something?<br />

References with Local Copy set to TRUE are not checked recursively

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.

.NET Programming

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented programming language implemented on the .NET framework, but also supported on other platforms such as Mono and Silverlight. Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,

Visual Basic.NET

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
