I run a pre-build event to copy files to my project’s folder (ProjectX). I need to include these files as content files in ProjectX, so that when built, it is seen as part of ProjectX’s output or content.
ProjectX is then included in a setup project to be deployed, so the files copied to ProjectX must also be included in the setup project (as “Content files from ProjectX”).
Any suggestions?
There are ways (using DTE), but I ended up going the WIX route to include files from other sources.
