When one creates a class file and wants to reference to other dlls, he can fill the textbox with the according strings, separated by spaces.

Unfortunately, if the reference is a project specific reference and the dll is within the {$build} directory, the string {$build}/ has to be a prefix to the dll's name. This is not intuitive and will lead to long debugging time, as no warning or error leads directly to this fact.

Global references are not affected.

---------WRONG SOLUTION-----------
<references>
<include name='Calculator.dll'/>
<include name='System.Runtime.Remoting.dll'/>
</references>
---------------------------

----CORRECT SOLUTION---------
<references>
<include name='${build}/Calculator.dll'/>
<include name='System.Runtime.Remoting.dll'/>
</references>
------------------

A solution would be to add a second line for "project internal references" which leads to an automatic search for the dll within the build directory.
A simple solution would be the adding of an example/and or a warning in the wizard!

    To be implemented _before_ publishing the 0.3-release
    Add an example/and or a warning in the
    wizard

    To be implemented _after_ publishing the 0.3-release:
    In a better way
