Where should we put Telerik assemblies when not in GAC

[CSurieux]

Hello,

I am using the xap created with Telerik as dynamically loaded modules from different folders in my web application.
Where should I put the Telerik assemblies if I can't install them in GAC ?

Thanks for answer.

Finally installing these assemblies in the Bin folder for Web Application seems Ok.
Curious I was not expecting Silverlight to respect the .net Application Domain ?

Hello Christian,

The Telerik Silverlight assemblies are included in the Silverlight XAP file, so you don't need them in the application's Bin folder when deploying. You just need to set the references and Visual Studio will generate the XAP files automatically.

Hello Valeri,

Thanks you, it seems I am fighting against myself :)

Little questions related to your answer:

• if I realize several xap files, they will all include the Telerik assemblies, is there a way to share these assemblies
• when Telerik upgrade its assemblies I need a full rebuild, not just changing the assemblies like in asp.net

Best regards

Hi Christian,

Up to the questions:

- The highlighted option in the Properties pane (see the attached screenshot) controls whether the corresponding assembly will be included in the XAP file, or not. However, when loading the additional XAP files, you should take care of loading the assemblies (or use Prism or other framework that will take care of them for you). For example, our online demos' initial XAP file contains only the Controls, Input and Navigation assemblies, plus the empty demo application. When you click on GridView, for example, we load an additional XAP file, that contains the GridView assembly and the GridView examples.

- Yes, you need to do a full rebuild.
