How to setup all dlls in a separate folder?

Hi,

When installing my app on a client system, I want to setup all dlls used by
my app in a separate folder, in order to keep my installation folder
cleaner.

I guess I'll have to do something in the .config file. How does that works?

Thanks in advance

GB

Yes, you have to tell the CLR where to look for your assemblies.
Keyword here is "probing".
( http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/15h... )

If folder, where you put your asseblies is "bin", or "bin2" then config file
look like

<configuration>
<runtime>
<assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
<probing privatePath="bin;bin2;"/>
</assemblyBinding>
</runtime>
</configuration>
