At the moment, NuGet doesn&#39;t support installing packages resources elsewhere than the default location. There&#39;s an existing NuGet work item that would cover this feature : [#1914  - Allow package resource folders to be configurable](http://nuget.codeplex.com/workitem/1914).

Not really an &#39;answer&#39;, but worth noting:
With the shift of managing front-end libraries to Bower, I don&#39;t expect [work item #1914][1] will ever be implemented. 
I&#39;d highly recommend to look into how you can use the combination of NPM, Bower and Grunt to achieve your custom folder structure. 

If you had an early look at VS2015, you&#39;ll notice that&#39;s the new recommended way for your project set-up and maintenance. 

**Bower**
&gt; Dependency management tool used for managing front end components writting in html, css, jss (e.g. Bootstrap, Knockout, Angular, moment, lightboxes, gallery libraries, ...)

**NPM**
&gt; Dependency management tool used for managing node js modules

**Grunt**
&gt; Grunt is a javascript task runner tool. You can do a lot of things using grunt which you had to do manually otherwise: compiling files, linting files, moving files, ...

**C++03 5.1 Primary expressions &#167;2** says:

&gt; A literal is a primary expression. Its type depends on its form (2.13). A string literal is an lvalue; all other literals are rvalues.

Similarly, **C99 6.5.1 &#167;4** says:

&gt; A string literal is a primary expression. It is an lvalue with type as detailed in 6.4.5.

What is the rationale behind this?

As I understand, string literals are objects, while all other literals are not. And an l-value always refers to an object.

But the question then is why are string literals objects while all other literals are not? This rationale seems to me more like an egg or chicken problem.

I understand the answer to this may be related to hardware architecture rather than C/C++ as programming languages, nevertheless I would like to hear the same.

Why are string literals l-value while all other literals are r-value?

I was wondering what the use of the comma was when slicing Python arrays - I have an example that appears to work, but the line that looks weird to me is

    p = 20*numpy.log10(numpy.abs(numpy.fft.rfft(data[:2048, 0])))

Now, I know that when slicing an array, the first number is start, the next is end, and the last is step, but what does the comma after the end number designate? Thanks.

My team has been using the Enable Package Restore option since Nuget 1.5 to keep packages out of our source control.  When Nuget 1.6 was released we noticed an issue where it wasn&#39;t pulling the packages down, and tracked it down to the Nuget.exe in the .nuget folder needed to updated to 1.6 to match the Package Manager.

What&#39;s the best way to update a solution once Nuget has been udpated?  I don&#39;t see an easy way from studio to tell which version of nuget is in the solution folder. So far we blow away the .nuget folder and re-run the Enable Package Restore command.

Is there a way to automatically update nuget.exe in the .nuget folder when using package restore?

I want to install an older version of a package (`Newtonsoft.Json`). But NuGet rolls back:

    PM&gt; Install-Package Newtonsoft.Json -Version 4.0.5
    Successfully installed &#39;Newtonsoft.Json 4.0.5&#39;.
    Install failed. Rolling back...
    Install-Package : Already referencing a newer version of &#39;Newtonsoft.Json&#39;.

How can I do it?

I&#39;m at a loss for this:

I&#39;ve defined my classes for a entity framework (4.1.3) code first approach. Everything was fine (I was creating the tables etc.) until I started to Seed.

Now when I do the 

    Add-Migration &quot;remigrate&quot; ; Update-Database;

I get an error on the package console &quot;Validation failed for one or more entities. See &#39;EntityValidationErrors&#39; property for more details.&quot;

I have a breakpoint in my Seed() method but because I&#39;m running this on the console when the project is not running, I&#39;m clueless as to how to get to the details (PS - I&#39;ve seen the thread https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5400530/validation-failed-for-one-or-more-entities-while-saving-changes-to-sql-server-da which shows how I can see the property.)

I know that my Seed() method has a problem because if I put a return right after the method call, the error goes away. So how do I set my breakpoint so I can see what the validation error is? Kinda lost. Or is there some other way to trace it in the nuget console??

I&#39;m going to bang out a couple of questions here...first, with NuGet is it possible to create a package from a few DLLs? There is no visual studio project, just the command line and a couple of pre-compiled DLL files. 

Second, assuming that is possible, why do I continuously get the &quot;Assembly outside of the lib folder&quot; warning? I&#39;ve tried everything I can think of to get associated assemblies to add themselves as references inside of the NuGet package. 

My file structure looks like this

     Root
       - File1.dll
       - lib
         - File2.dll
         - File3.dll

When I tell NuGet to pack it using a .nuspec like this

    &lt;?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot;?&gt;
    &lt;package &gt;
      &lt;metadata&gt;
        &lt;id&gt;File1.dll&lt;/id&gt;
        &lt;version&gt;1.0.0&lt;/version&gt;
        &lt;authors&gt;thisguy&lt;/authors&gt;
        &lt;owners&gt;thisguysmom&lt;/owners&gt;
        &lt;requireLicenseAcceptance&gt;false&lt;/requireLicenseAcceptance&gt;
        &lt;description&gt;This is some library&lt;/description&gt;
        &lt;releaseNotes&gt;Porting to NuGet&lt;/releaseNotes&gt;
        &lt;copyright&gt;Copyright 2012&lt;/copyright&gt;
        &lt;references&gt;
    	  &lt;reference file=&quot;File2.dll&quot; /&gt;	  
    	  &lt;reference file=&quot;File3.dll&quot; /&gt;
    	&lt;/references&gt;
      &lt;/metadata&gt;
    &lt;/package&gt;

I receive that warning. From what I&#39;m reading, I shouldn&#39;t even have to define the references node in any of my projects, as the lib folder items should automatically be added as references?

Does anyone out there understand this NuGet mess?

I am having trouble getting the EF to install on my very simple project called &#39;Match&#39; (just now learning MVC, better late than never).  The general context here is that I created the Model class with only 2 fields and now I want to change the Model class to have a few more fields/properties. I have made the change in the Model class and am now trying to update the DB to match. I am trying to use Update-Database from EF to do that.

I am trying to create a nuget package using http://docs.nuget.org/docs/creating-packages/creating-and-publishing-a-package#From_a_convention_based_working_directory
as a reference.
My Package Manger Console in Visual Studio is not allowing me to use the &#39;nuget&#39; command.
I am able to &#39;Get-help nuguet&#39; and it displays:

 The following NuGet cmdlets are included.

        Cmdlet					Description
        ------------------		----------------------------------------------
        Get-Package				Gets the set of packages available from the package source.

        Install-Package			Installs a package and its dependencies into the project.

        Uninstall-Package		Uninstalls a package. If other packages depend on this package, 
                                the command will fail unless the –Force option is specified.

        Update-Package			Updates a package and its dependencies to a newer version.

        Add-BindingRedirect		Examines all assemblies within the output path for a project
                                and adds binding redirects to the application (or web) 
                                configuration file where necessary.
                            
        Get-Project				Returns a reference to the DTE (Development Tools Environment) 
                                for the specified project. If none is specifed, returns the 
                                default project selected in the Package Manager Console.

        Open-PackagePage        Open the browser pointing to ProjectUrl, LicenseUrl or 
                                ReportAbuseUrl of the specified package.

        Register-TabExpansion	Registers a tab expansion for the parameters of a command.


 - 
However, whenever I start off commands with nuget is gives :

The term &#39;nuget&#39; is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try ag
ain.

 + nuget &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt; 
    + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (nuget:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException
 


I have tried the following solutions:

1&gt;closing down all items and restarting

2&gt; uninstalling and reinstalling

3&gt;creating a powershell profile file (this didn&#39;t exist before and this actually broke everything)

The problem started to appear after I upgraded my Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate trial version to registered. I had originally had the VS 12 Pro installed. I don&#39;t know if that really has anything to do with it but I noticed that others that had similar problems have vs 10 and 12 installed.


My question is &quot;does anyone know what else to try?&quot; My theory is that the path to the nuget command is missing but I cannot find how to configure the paths the package manager console uses and I am not sure where the cmdlet nuget is actually stored. 

Updated---tried downloading the command line tool as suggested below. This lead to  nothing working again. I tried to uninstall and now I have a item in vs2010 extentions for nuget that doesn&#39;t have a install or unistall button enabled. This leads me to believe that it has to do with extensions installed via 2010 and 2012 that has a part in my little drama. If anyone also knows how to nuke an uninstallable extension, please advise also but I will try another question for that.
