I have a C# project which references a shared project. The shared project includes a lot of data I want copied in a folder, eg
Data/file1.txt
When built with visual studio, all the files move over to the output directory with a subfolder, eg
bin/Release/Data/file1.txt
but on mono, it ignores the subdirectory, eg
bin/Release/file1.txt
How can I force mono to maintain the same directory structure during the build?
As an update, during the build I see the following as well:
Target _CopyDeployFilesToOutputDirectoryPreserveNewest:
Copying file from 'Data/file1.txt' to 'bin/Release/file1.txt'
UPDATE : This appears to be a bug in Xamarian Studio 5.9.4. Shared projects with items flagged as Copy to Output Directory will not respect the directory structure that they have in the Project...
Assuming:
Set the File Properties to:
Build and you should have:
.
├── AGenericFile.txt
├── Data
│ ├── Data2
│ │ └── file2.txt
│ ├── SharedData.txt
│ └── file1.txt
├── Data2
│ └── file3.txt
├── foodata.exe
└── foodata.exe.mdb
If you are still having problems, look at your project xml and make sure that your have a
<CopyToOutputDirectory>PreserveNewest</CopyToOutputDirectory>
set on each of those data files.
Project / Tools / Edit file:
~~~
<ItemGroup>
<Folder Include="Data\" />
<Folder Include="Data\Data2\" />
<Folder Include="Data2\" />
</ItemGroup>
<ItemGroup>
<None Include="AGenericFile.txt">
<CopyToOutputDirectory>PreserveNewest</CopyToOutputDirectory>
</None>
<None Include="Data\file1.txt">
<CopyToOutputDirectory>PreserveNewest</CopyToOutputDirectory>
</None>
<None Include="Data\Data2\file2.txt">
<CopyToOutputDirectory>PreserveNewest</CopyToOutputDirectory>
</None>
<None Include="Data2\file3.txt">
<CopyToOutputDirectory>PreserveNewest</CopyToOutputDirectory>
</None>
</ItemGroup>
