the source file is different from when the module was built

Question

I have a rather large project that I am trying to modify. I noticed earlier that when I typed DbCommand, visual studio did

Answer 1

My problem was that I had two projects in my solution. The second one was a test project used to call the first one. I had picked the path to the references from the bin folder's release folder.

So whenever I made a change to the first project's code and rebuilt it, it would update the dlls in the debug folder but the calling project was pointing to the release folder, giving me the error, "the source file is different from when the module was built."

Once I deleted the reference to the main project's dll in the release folder and set it to the dll in the debug folder, the issue went away.
