Prevent Launchbox from loading assemblies from plugin sub-folders


Recommended Posts

Hello, I'm creating a plugin which calls a separate app, but I'd like both the plugin and app to be self-contained under the Plugins folder.

I.e.

myPlugin.dll is placed within the standard plugin folder:
./plugins/myplugin/myplugin.dll

I have additional exe's stored in my plugin folder within sub-directories:
./plugins/myplugin/requiredApp/myApp.exe
./plugins/myplugin/requiredApp/myAppDependency.dll

However, I'm running into an issue where Launchbox is trying to load the "./plugins/myplugin/requiredApp/myAppDependency.dll" assembly which fails due to compatibility issues (and crashes launchbox).

So...is there a way for me to tell launchbox to omit sub-folders in the plugin directory? I.e. adding an ".ignore" file or something to prevent launchbox from recursively searching some plugin directories? I see some other plugins have added additional dependencies into a "ThirdParty" folder. Is that standard practice here versus a self-contained plugin folder?
