如何添加到外部配置文件到Visual Studio 2010的参考？ [英] How do I add a reference to an external configuration file to Visual Studio 2010?

问题描述

我有一个外部的配置文件，为第三方工具，我想能够编辑在VS2010编辑其他项目组成的一部分。

I have an external configuration file, for a third party tool, which I would like to be able to edit as part of editing other project components in VS2010.

我工作的这个项目是一个MVC-3项目，该文件位于项目（它在../ExternalConfig的相当于root）的文件夹结构之外。

The project I'm working on is an MVC-3 project, and the file is located outside of the folder structure for the project (it's in the equivalent of ../ExternalConfig to the root).

我如何添加到该文件VS2010的参考？目前，我所有的尝试都导致VS创建的目录结构，这是不理想的内部文件的副本。

How do I add a reference to this file to VS2010? Currently, all my attempts have resulted in VS creating a copy of the file inside of its directory structure, which is not ideal.

（当然，我可能会去一些陌生长度，如添加脚本来构建过程把配置文件在正确的地方，但我宁愿只能够编辑它会在那里坐）

(Sure, I could go to some strange lengths, like adding a script to the build process to put the config file in the right place, but I'd rather just be able to edit it where it sits)

推荐答案

关键是要将该项目添加为一个链接：

The trick is to add the item as a link:

1. 右键单击您的项目在解决方案资源管理器


2. 选择添加 - >现有项...


3. 导航至要添加到解决方案
   
4. [重要] 而是按Enter键或单击Add按钮，你要点击添加按钮的右边的下拉箭头图标，然后选择添加链接。

1. Right-click your project in Solution Explorer
2. Select "Add" -> "Existing Item..."
3. Navigate to the file that you want to add to the solution
4. [Important] Instead of hitting Enter or clicking the Add button, you want to click the down-arrow icon at the right edge of the Add button, and select "Add As Link".
