dll getting locked in referencing project's bin

[TS]

in my web project's bin folder, the dll, that comes from a project reference
of a class library in same solution, can't be deleted. it says it has a
sharing violation. i also cannot delete the .projdata file in the class
library's obj directory. This is causing updates to the class library not
getting seen in the web app.

i ran filemon and it just says sharing violation but i dont' know why. i'm
sure by closing & re-opening VS.net it will fix it, but i don't want to
always have to do that. i've killed the worker process and restarted iis and
they dont' help.

What do i do?


Also, what is the obj directory for?

thanks a bunch!

Have you killed the aspnet process?

Hi TS,

As for the class library project's output assembly, is it strong-named?
Based on my experience, since strong-named assemblly is not copied to
client application(which reference it)'s local location, and when the
application use it do not shadow copy it , there will occur such locking
issue. Also, ASP.NET web application won't shadow copy strong-named
assembly, therefore if this is the case, you can try remove the strong-name
on the class project assembly to see whether it helps.

the project is not building a strong name assemlbly. Sometimes killing the
worker process works, sometimes it doesn't - sometimes i have to close the
solution of close Vs.net.

Thanks for your response TS,

Seems a bit strange since non-storng-named assembly in private bin dir of
asp.net application are always shadow copied. Have you ever changed the
class library project's output directory path? by default, class library
project will generate the output assembly and put it under the project's
sub folder ( project\bin\debug), have you manually changed this path to
another place, e.g: the ASP.NET application's private bin dir?
