How can I enforce a 3rd party dll to use a newer version of another dll in my solution?

I have a console application that references foo.dll. And foo.dll -as well as my console- references another dll which is boo.dll.

Console application references --> boo.dll AND fool.dll foo.dll also references --> boo.dll but it specifies the version number: '1.2.0'

Now, imagine that I have replaced boo.dll with the newer version. '1.3.0'

Now, as foo.dll references boo.dll by specifying the version number to be 1.2.0 my solution does not build anymore.

How can I enforce foo.dll to use newer version of boo.dll? Can I achive this via app.config?

Thanks

You can define a binding redirect in your config file. This will attempt to up-version all the boo.dll references to the defined version.
