Please forgive this posting I realize its completely off topic - but I'm hoping that someone on this list has had experience trying to do automated builds that included references to VB6 projects that themselves have to be built. A few hours of googling hasn't even found someone with the same problem (which clearly means I'm using the wrong word
The team I'm coaching is building an ASP .NET app (VS 2005) that has to work within an existing VB 6 application. As such they created an Interop dll written in VB6. So far so good, the problem comes when the interop dll is added as reference in the application. When the dll is rebuilt the projects reference to the dll is wrong (incorrect GUID I think). So how do you solve this problem? - build the dll in prestep and magically update the csproj file? - use msbuild to help magically recreate the csproj file? I guess I'm looking for the magic part - how to update the reference?
