Why third party library "ChilkatDotNet4x64" isn't copied to the output folder?

I have project A that references third party library ChilkatDotNet4.dll. My project B references project A. After the compilation the output folder of B contains ChilkatDotNet4.dll as exptected! But, when I replace ChilkatDotNet4.dll to ChilkatDotNet4x64.dll, so the later isn't copied to the output folder. Why?

Copy Local is set to True, solution is compiled to Any CPU

At first I thought it must be something with Copy Local (explained here), but hey(!) it does work with ChilkatDotNet4.dll version. So what is the problem with ChilkatDotNet4x64.dll?

Solution

  • If you are using a Build Template make sure to add the file manually. A work around if you can't find what a build template is, is to rename the file from ChilkatDotNet4x64.dll to ChilkatDotNet4.dll
