Hi,

Within an LLBLGen project folder is a folder called 'obj'. What is this for?

Cheers,

Ian.

Wouldn't that be the standard VisualStudio obj folder?

Yes. Which dlls should a project reference? The ones in the 'obj' folder or the one's inside the 'bin' directory within 'DatabaseGeneric' and 'DatabaseSpecific'?

Also, when a project is using the generated code, should it reference the LLBLGen support classes in 'Solutions Design\LLBLGen Pro\RuntimeLibraries' or the copy of the support classes in the same folder as the generated code binaries?

obj is a folder created by vs.net (or better: the compiler) with temp files for compilation. Never use files in that folder, it's for vs.net and compilation purposes simple_smile

Always reference files in the bin folder, as these are the compilation results.

OK, what about the Support classes though? Should one reference the DLL in the RuntimeLibraries or a copy in the generated code's bin folder?

in your own project? the one in the runtimelibs folder.
