Hi,
I'm attempting to run sgen.exe against a silverlight 4 assembly that I have created.
The command line is:
sgen.exe /a:"c:\MyPath\bin\Debug\myAsm.dll"
This command returns the following error:
Error: Unable to generate a temporary class (result=1).
error CS0433: The type 'System.Net.CookieContainer' exists in both 'c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\System\v4.0_4.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089\System.dll' and 'c:\MyPath\bin\Debug\System.Net.dll'
All the references used by myAsm.dll are copied locally into the Debug folder alongside it. There is a System.dll and a System.Net.dll in the Debug folder both of which are, as you would expect, the appropriate Silverlight versions.
1) I do not understand why sgen is attempting to use anything from the GAC. Does the GAC contain Silverlight assemblies? I didn't think it did.
2) How do I force sgen to use the local silverlight references rather than the GAC?
Re point 2, I have attempted to use compiler options to force the references.
I attempted the following command line (called from within the debug folder):
sgen.exe /compiler:"/reference:system.dll" /a:myAsm.dll
This resulted in the following error:
Error: Unable to generate a temporary class (result=1).
error CS1703: An assembly with the same identity 'System, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' has already been imported. Try removing one of the duplicate references.
