create a class library for a sharepoint project

I am trying to put my sharepoint code in an external library. Once I reference the dll in my project and when I do a deployment, I get an error saying that Could not load file or assembly. Can anyone tell me what should I do when creating my class library? what references do I have to include?

thank you for your help.

Go to packages and add the External DLL's to the GAC

You should both sign your class library and include it into your package. in order to include a library into a package go to package designer and click Advanced then add your library to the package from there via Add Custom Assembly.

You can click on "advance" on the package designer and add your external dll, assuming you are using sharepoint 2010

If I recall correctly, sharepoint requires external assemblies be signed and loaded from the GAC. Are you installing your DLL into the GAC and is it signed?
