I have project A, a C# console application which I want to reference my project B, a C# class library. My goal is to be able to make use of objects in Project B from within Project A, and see the source tree for both projects in the same Solution Explorer. I can of course make a reference from Project A to the built .dll that Project B outputs and use the objects in that fashion, but this doesn’t give me the control I would like.
I’m having difficulty achieving this. I assume it should be found in Add Reference -> ‘Project’ tab, but I don’t see any items in that tab window and can’t figure out how to populate it. Am I missing something here? Both projects target .NET 4.0 framework and I am using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Version 10.0.40219.1 C# Express with ENU Service Pack 1 (KB983509).
Any help would be appreciated, thank you.
Open Project A, File > Add > Existing Project
Both projects need to be in the same solution.
