Getting file not found exception when trying to just reference SOSS dlls

[ron.buchanan]

We are trying to not install the client files on every developer machine. We have referenced the two libs soss_svcdotnet.dll and soss_namedcache.dll, but we still get the file not found error for soss_svcdotnet.dll when running the application.

I ran ProcMon to see what it was looking for and it was svccli that was causing it to fail. This cannot be ref'd in a project, so I am left wondering...

MUST we install the .NET libs on every developer machine???

Hi Ron,
Yes, client libraries must be deployed using the installer. In addition to the soss_svccli.dll file that you noticed (a native library), the installer also provides registry entries and configuration files that are required at runtime.
