Is there a way to specify assembly references based on build configuration in Visual Studio?

Question

I have a project that adds some extensibility to another application through their API. However, I want to be able to use the same project for multiple versions of their app

Answer 1

  False
  ..\SharedLibs\log4net\$(Platform)\$(Configuration)\log4net.dll

You can replace the hint path with the properties:

$(Configuration) is equivalent to Release/Debug or whatever other configuration you have. $(Platform) is equivalent to x86/x64/Any CPU

If your configuration includes Any CPU then you will need to put single quotes around $(Configuration)
