All: I am working on a solution where one of the projects is actually plug-in to the main exe that the solution builds. Since this one project is a plug in, it's wrong to reference the plug-in from the main exe (that assembly isn't guaranteed to be present in a deployment, it's optional).
So here's my problem: If I modify code in my plug-in project, and then hit F-5 to run, Visual Studio will not alwyas build my plug-in (since based upon the reference tree, the main exe does not appear to depend upon it).
Is there a solution or project-level setting that I could change to cause this plug-in project to be included when I run (without adding a reference)?
I know about the global setting in tools | options | Build and Run, but I'd rather not have to change VS's behavior globally just to get this solution to build right (also, if the setting goes with the solution or project, then when other developers check it out, they should simply inherit the setting)
BTW: these are c# projects in a VS 2005 solution.
