Post From: Using SC build system from different folders

I took time and did it EXACTLY as you say, since I was really interested If it will do the job. But it did not..

So, here again, one more time.

1] I took some code and compiled in Visual Studio 19. The output folder for it is as shown in the picture https://prnt.sc/xzplsm
2, 3] Before I moved the DLL into Sierra\Data folder https://prnt.sc/xzpq9g, I opened a chart and clicked 'Build' -> 'Release All DLLs and Deny Load' https://prnt.sc/xzptvo and kept the window opened.
4] Then I moved the DLL to the Data folder https://prnt.sc/xzpxap
5] Then I clicked 'Build' -> 'Allow Load DLLs' and close the window https://prnt.sc/xzq1o6

And then I loaded the study see it in the chart of course, and make a change in the code and recompiled in VS 19 https://prnt.sc/xzqggz

And I want the change to be reflected on the loaded chart without doing anything extra (like closing/opening Siera, or moving/copying some files here and there. But it does not work - of course it does not work when my Target to save is in C:\ASCIL\... so whenever I recompile it, this one is affected, not the one the Sierra\Data folder.. )

So am i really that stupid that I cannot follow 5 simple steps to make something work? Or is there something else that I cant understand. I surely suck at C++ build system internals, but I should be able to follow 5 simple steps..
