title: Metadata file '.dll' could not be found
body: <p>I am working on a WPF, C# 3.0 project, and I get this error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Error 1 Metadata file
  'WORK=- \Tools\VersionManagementSystem\BusinessLogicLayer\bin\Debug
  \BusinessLogicLayer.dll' could not be found C:\-=WORK=- \Tools
  \VersionManagementSystem\VersionManagementSystem\CSC VersionManagementSystem
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is how I reference my usercontrols:</p>
  
  <pre><code>xmlns:vms="clr-namespace:VersionManagementSystem"
  &lt;vms:SignOffProjectListing Margin="5"/&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It happens after every failed build. The only way I can get the solution to compile is to comment out all my user controls and re-build the project, and then I uncomment the usercontrols and everything is fine.</p>
  
  <p>I have checked build orders and dependencies configurations.</p>
  
  <p>As you can see, it seems to have truncated the DLL file's absolute path... I have read that there is a bug with the length. Is this a possible problem?</p>
  
  <p>It's very annoying and having to comment, build, and uncomment, the build is becoming extremely tiresome.</p>
