I can understand the reason you gave. But it confuses me more since it
complecates the deployment. I have a subfolder with some resource files under
it. This folder is relative to the bin folder, which means I can get the
folder dynamically from my assembly dll under bin folder. If the dll loaded
is the one under temporary folder, I cannot use XCopy to deploy my project.
How can I resolve it?
