What are the obj and bin folders (created by Visual Studio) used for?
The default output path for any project is Visual studio is bin/Debug
, but I have noticed that obj
folder is also generated which again contains dll
and pdb
files. Can someone tell me why is this folder generated?
The bin and obj folders are usually safe to delete since they are automatically generated when the solution/project is being build by Visual Studio/MSBuild.
The obj directory is for intermediate object files and other transient data files that are generated by the compiler or build system during a build. The bin directory is the directory that final output binaries (and any dependencies or other deployable files) will be written to.
"obj" folder is used to store temporary object files and other files used to create the final binary.
