automatically including other references when adding a DLL to a project

Visual Studio138
Is it possible to have a DLL automatically include references to other DLL's

that it depends upon when it is added to a project?

Re:automatically including other references when adding a DLL to a project

The DLL you are adding needs those DLL's but the Assembly you are adding the

reference to does not necessarily need those DLLs, therefore the DLLs are

not added, because they are not required by the Assembly.



Your application will still work, even if those DLL's aren't referenced.

Certainly not required, but is it possible?
