Why are the .dll's created locally?

[Rob Meade]

Hi,

I have started creating some Web Custom Controls - so far so good - what I
was surprised about was that where I have added a project to my solution in
VS - for each of the Web Control Libraries it creates, it does this locally
not on the server - as opposed to other webforms and such which when created
in VS appear immediately on the server?

Its not a 'big' issue I suppose as I can copy and paste the .dll's on to the
server - but I just wondered if there was a reason for this..

Regards

Rob

If you create a reference to the dlls, and set CopyLocal to True, they will
be copied to the server.

Hi Kevin,

You can find this setting in the Properties dialog for the Reference in the
Project.
