.net - How to stop visual studio from updating assembly references? -

-

in our environment have lib folder contains various third party assemblies referenced our projects. example, enterprise libary , elmah.

sometimes dev doesn't latest on folder. when dev loads project can't find assembly in expected folder, visual studio automatically locates copy , updates project references.

the problem occurs when dev checks in project , screws else up.

is there way stop visual studio 2008 doing this?

update: wanted add using tfs source control.

here's how guard against @ company. (your mileage vary!)

any non-system (or otherwise non-gac) references come our dev server, every developer has mapped w: drive. have common dll directory, subdirectories client (or vendor), , further subdirectories appropriate. no dlls ever stored in source control, except license.dll needed infragistics occasionally.

for vendor-provided libraries (entlib, infragistics, etc.), policy reference w: drive. period. no 1 authorized reference anywhere else. codes hint in project files common path.

for in-house libraries (client , internal projects), our continuous integration process outputs dlls appropriate branch of directory -- again, our references come from.

this slow down our local compile time (for local debugging), vs auto-refresh these against server every time. it's annoyance (sometimes project may take 5 or 6 minutes build locally), it's necessary evil work around people using different references. advantage here checks in code 1 of references, ci server kicks off build , gets pretty darned quickly.

the trick stable, repeatable build process , continuous integration server. we're using cruisecontrol.net, integrated nant builds, insert favorite ci server , build tool here.

so far we've had 0 issues result of process, except when build server kicks in while our source control system (also known demon spawn, see many of recent remarks) performs large multi-file check-in. (as demon spawn doesn't support transacted check-ins.) however, rare occurrence -- perhaps once every 5 or 6 weeks. , force rebuild afterward takes care of it.

just thoughts ... technique should keep people screwing source control -- , added bonus, reduce size of source control won't checking in dlls, dll.refresh files.

right now, have tool tip pops when hover on edit box. problem tool tip contains multiple error messages , in 1 long line. need have each error message on own line. error messages contained in cstring new line seperating them. my existing code below. bool ontooltiptext(uint, nmhdr* pnmhdr, lresult* presult) { assert(pnmhdr->code == ttn_needtexta || pnmhdr->code == ttn_needtextw); // need handle both ansi , unicode versions of message tooltiptexta* pttta = (tooltiptexta*)pnmhdr; tooltiptextw* ptttw = (tooltiptextw*)pnmhdr; // tchar szfulltext[256]; cstring strtiptext=_t(""); uint nid = pnmhdr->idfrom; if (pnmhdr->code == ttn_needtexta && (pttta->uflags & ttf_idishwnd) || pnmhdr->code == ttn_needtextw && (ptttw->uflags & ttf_idishwnd)) { // idfrom hwnd of tool nid = ::getdlgctrlid((hwnd)nid); } //m_errprojaccel[ch] contains 1 or more error messages each...
