Csla.Luna, what's this?...

Question

I have this wpf form; the call to InitializeComponent() brings up this message:

Binding Failure was detected.

The assembly with display name 'Csla.Luna' failed to load in the 'Load' binding context of the AppDomain with ID 1. The cause of the failure was: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Csla.Luna, Version=3.6.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=93be5fdc093e4c30' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. File name: 'Csla.Luna, Version=3.6.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=93be5fdc093e4c30'

We use Csla but in a data access component that is not developed by me; I don't know what Csla.Luna is, and I couldn't find anything about it online. Any help?...

The only "out of the ordinary" thing that I am doing on that form is that I am binding to some ObjectDataProviders that call static methods accessing the database, but It worked so far, and I can't tell whether this is the problem or not.

Any help would be appreciated. Can't believe that Google has no clue about this Csla.Luna thing.

Answer 1

I don't believe Csla.Luna is part of the original framework. You should try and contact the person in charge of developing the data acces component to find out more about it.

In any case, it seem that you are missing this file (Csla.Luna.dll).

You could also use Reflector to pinpoint the location of the call to this Csla.Luna assembly...
