Visual Studio Comparative Reference Path

I usually format my project directory like JP Boodhoo. the main file containing the solution file, then the lib folder for all third-party libraries, src-dir, a tool library for third-party developers that will not be deployed .... For more details see here

I have set the link path in my project for the entire necessary folder, but if the developer checks the trunk, he must set the link path. Is there any way to simplify this?

And I'm using Visual Studio 2008.

Thanks.

I'm not sure which Visual Studio language you are using, but if it is C ++, then the file paths are stored in the .vcproj project .vcproj , which should also be versioned. (NOTE: the .sln solution file does NOT store path settings). If you are trying to use relative rather than absolute paths, it should be easily accessible to several developers.

In Visual C ++ 2008, project files are XML , so you can edit them directly. If you want to get really fantasy, you can use .vsprops property sheets for extra control.

I use a shared folder on the network for similar things. And give this folder full trust. on PDC, I only have a login script that maps accordingly. This may not be the best way, but it worked for me without any problems.

Another solution that I used in the past is a shared folder on each machine, where there are all the dependencies, and synchronize it with some kind of tool. I use Backup Exec, which comes with the Desktop and Laptop option, which has synchronization, but other things also work.
