ThirdParty References

do they need to be on the prod server?

I found a nifty set of Reference classes for mySQL and .NET put out by Core Labs.

I installed it on my development server and can connect to mySQL as if it were SQL Server, with all the same class names (with "My" in front).

When I move everything to the production server, which doesn't have VS, do I need to have that installed up there somewhere as well?

Or, since the framework works on compiled code, is the reference already compiled and I only need to move files?

If you just add the References to your project, you should be all set.

Add the reference and set CopyLocal=True....if you don't have it set to true then the 3rd party component will need to be in the General Assembly Cache on the production server.
