Visual Studio Post Build Event – Copy to Relative Directory Location

Here is what you want to put in the project’s Post-build event command line:

copy /Y "$(TargetDir)$(ProjectName).dll" "$(SolutionDir)lib\$(ProjectName).dll"

EDIT: Or if your target name is different than the Project Name.

copy /Y "$(TargetDir)$(TargetName).dll" "$(SolutionDir)lib\$(TargetName).dll"
