Web Package Deployement

Hi,
I am working on a MVC 4 application, and I am doing creation of package for each module. When I install the package in a different MVC application(this is the main application), all related files and content goes to Application's Areas folder, but I need to deploy package's dll file in main application's bin folder.

I am not getting any clue regarding what I am missing in creation of package.
Can any body please help me.

Thanks,
VD Tripathi

I did not get any reply on this post. So finally, I come with a solution to solve my problem.
I used XCopy command to place package's assembly file (.dll) in to main application's bin directory.

     I have placed here my code...

System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo();
            startInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
            startInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
            startInfo.FileName = "xcopy";
            startInfo.WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
            startInfo.Arguments = "\"" + ApplicationBinDirectoryPath + "\"" + " " + "\"" + RootdirectoryPath+@"\Areas\"+PackageDirectory+@"\bin\" + "\"" + @"/I";
            using (Process exeProcess = Process.Start(startInfo))
            {
              exeProcess.WaitForExit();
            }

I am using here @"\Areas"+PackageDirectory+@"\bin\, please don't confuse with this line, It is basically used in MVC where Areas directory exists.(Simply we can give here any other path).

In last @"/I" is used that indicates install command.
