I try to connect to the API (Using C#) that client provided, but it is using LaunchPadApi() I am not sure what assembly I need to add to get this, these are 2 references that were added:
using IO.Swagger.Api;
using IO.Swagger.Client;
I was able to find using IO.Swagger.Client; but I am not able to find using IO.Swagger.Api;
This is a sample code I am not sure how I can get LaunchPadApi defined so "responsePost" method is not recognized as well,
using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
using IO.Swagger.Api;
using IO.Swagger.Client;
using IO.Swagger.Model;
public class responsePostExample
{
public void main()
{
var apiInstance = new LaunchPadApi();
....
try
{
apiInstance.responsePost(body, xAPIKey);
}
....
Install Launchpad in your nuget package manager for the project
Add using Launchpad; to the top of your file

I have only been coding for about two years now (off and on) but I'm well acquainted with this cryptic error across multiple versions of VS. I know this issue isn't related to just RestSharp.
This 'caret error' has been the bane of my VS experience so that is why I'm here.
Environment:
Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2019 Version 16.8.1
RestClient v4.0.30319
Windows 10 Professional
What I'm trying to do:
I'm following the very simple directions on the RestClient site. I have installed RestClient, added references but when I try to get started I get that dreaded caret error.
None of this is my code aside from the reference to RestClient, which may or may not be appropriate (I don't know).
Screen Snip
Code:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using RestSharp;
using RestSharp.Authenticators;
using RestClient;
namespace newDawn2
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var client = new RestClient("https://api.twitter.com/1.1");
client.Authenticator = new HttpBasicAuthenticator("username", "password");
var request = new RestRequest("statuses/home_timeline.json", DataFormat.Json);
var response = client.Get(request);
}
}
}
Thanks for reading.
using RestClient;
Here you are declaring that you are using the namespace RestClient, not the object.
var client = new RestClient(...
The error is raised here because you are trying to create an instance of the namespace you just declared you were using.
It's uncommon and confusing for an object to share a name with part of its namespace, so you should generally not expect to see a using statement with the same name you use to create an object.
Namespaces are used to separate, organize classes and limit what classes are loaded at compile time.
Classes of the same name can exist in different namespaces.
You could create your own class named RestClient and use it in this project as well(maybe for testing) as long as they existed in different namespaces. The full declaration of the class you are using now is RestSharp.RestClient. You could create a class with the full declaration Facundo.Test.RestClient and use them both in the same project. However, in this case, you could not use using statements and everytime you wanted to instantiate one or the other you would need to fully declare the namespace
RestSharp.RestClient client = new RestSharp.RestClient(...);
or
Facundo.Test.RestClient testClient = new Facundo.Test.RestClient(...);
I would not recommend naming them the same in practice, just trying to illustrate namespaces.
So I have two dlls, Algorithms.dll and Data_Structures.dll (I made these from projects I found on GitHub). Using the browse feature I have managed to add both of the DLL files as references to my Visual Studio 2017 console project. The problem is I can't do anything else with them. Whenever I try to reference something within either file, it simply cannot be found. The only thing that is recognized is the namespace, but nothing inside of that.
What do I need to do to get VS to find the classes these DLLs contain so I can use them? I am aware I need to use Algorithms.Sorting for the example but I can't call anything so I used this as an example.
P.S. If you need more info, please ask. I'm not sure what's relevant to this issue.
EDIT: Ok, it was misleading to have that kind of example. Corrected but please read the question.
EDIT: I tried this on Monodevelop and get the same issue. Maybe it's not the IDE that's the problem?
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Algorithms.Sorting; // Error, Sorting cannot be found, and neither can the file container Sorting
using Data_Structures; //Perfectly ok, can find the namespace
namespace CS_HW2_Testing_App
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
// I'd like to call MergeSort and so forth here. What am I missing?!
}
}
}
Here's the top piece of the file containing MergeSort if it helps
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using Algorithms.Common;
namespace Algorithms.Sorting
{
public static class MergeSorter
{
//
// Public merge-sort API
public static List<T> MergeSort<T>(this List<T> collection, Comparer<T> comparer = null)
{
comparer = comparer ?? Comparer<T>.Default;
return InternalMergeSort(collection, 0, collection.Count - 1, comparer);
}
...
In the first code block, you're importing the wrong namespace: using Algorithms.MergeSort should be using Algorithms.Sorting. Then you can use MergeSorter.MergeSort<T>(...) in your code!
You need to reference the namespace not the class.
using Algorithms.Sorting; //instead of using Algorithms.MergeSort;
Plus make sure the classes are public
I have created a class library to be used in a other project (which is not a .Net project), i have built the solution the dll file was generated, but when i try to explor my dll using dllexp i foud that it's empty.
My class is declared public as you can see bellow:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using PCLImportCLin.ServiceReference1;
using System.IO;
using System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary;
using System.Xml.Serialization;
namespace PCLImportCLin
{
public class ImportCL
{
public int geTroupeau()
{
// Rest of the code
}
}
}
What you are looking for, I guess, is this:
(Assuming you are using Visual Studio) In your project, right-click 'References', go to 'Browse' and then click the 'Browse...' button. Go to your dll path, select it. There you go. Now you can use it like this using Your.Dll.Namespace;
Sorry for the title. I don't know how to describe this problem shortly.
My problem is that I have a class-library which has references to other (third party) DLLs.
I need to use this class-library in another project, so I obviously added the .dll of my class-library to my main-project.
When I start my main-project, there's alway an error which says, that a reference (dll) in my class-library cannot be found.
If I add the whole class-library as a project to my projectmap in visual studio and then reference the whole project, this error doesn't occur.
I really don't want to add the whole class-library as a project to every "host"-project I make.
Has anyone an idea why this error occurs when the .dll of the class-library is added, but not when the whole project of the class-library is added as reference?
There must be a solution to get this working even if I don't add the whole library-project as reference. Otherwise it wouldn't make any sense to make a class library, right?
By the way: My class-library contains third-party dlls and the local copy property of the third-party dll is set to true.
Thanks in advance!
Edit:
My goal is to really make the class-library portable, even though it contains third-party libraries. I want to give only the .dll to another pc and use it without adding the whole class-library project every time.
The error is because you're not copying the dll's on the second project, you added a reference to your dll so it get's copied, but not the dll's referenced by your dll, so there are missing libraries.
Or you redistribute the dependencys with your dll or you can embedd the dll's inside your dll as resources and then intercept the assembly load and provide it through a resource: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/microsoft_press/archive/2010/02/03/jeffrey-richter-excerpt-2-from-clr-via-c-third-edition.aspx
EDIT: IN order to do it inside a dll you need to use an static class and call an static initializer BEFORE using any of the classes which are dependant on other libraries.
Here is an example setup:
-A library called LibraryB which supplies a simple class like this:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace LibraryB
{
public class ReferencedClass
{
public int GetIt()
{
return 5;
}
}
}
-A library called LibraryA which references LibraryB and supplies two classes, the initializer and the real class:
Initializer
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Reflection;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace LibraryA
{
public static class Initializer
{
public static void Init()
{
AppDomain.CurrentDomain.AssemblyResolve += (sender, args) =>
{
if (!args.Name.StartsWith("LibraryB"))
return null;
return Assembly.Load(LibraryA.Properties.Resources.LibraryB);
};
}
}
}
Class
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace LibraryA
{
public class RealClass
{
public int DoIt()
{
LibraryB.ReferencedClass cl = new LibraryB.ReferencedClass();
return cl.GetIt();
}
}
}
The LibraryA also has the LibraryB.dll compiled library embedded as a resource.
-A project called Test which only references LibraryA:
using LibraryA;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Initializer.Init();
RealClass c = new RealClass();
Console.WriteLine("From LibraryA: " + c.DoIt());
Console.ReadKey();
}
}
}
If you set-up everithing right and you execute it it will work, remember that if you are doing through visual studio, vs will copy the dll's so to do a real test after compiling all copy the exe and LibraryA and execute, it will work without LibraryB and LibraryB is being used from LibraryA.
To avoid requiring a Dll be registered for all users of a spreadsheet, I'm trying to use late binding so that users do not need to add a reference to the Dll.
I've created the Dll in C# with Visual Studio, and even though I've included "using RGiesecke.DllExport;" and used DllExport on a function to return an object containing the functions I need to access in VBA, I still get the error "Run-time error '453': Can't Find DLL entry point CreateDotNetObject in C:\temp\MyFunctions.dll."
The DLL code is as follows:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client;
using System.Data;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
using Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary;
using System.IO;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.ObjectModel;
using System.Threading;
using Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework.Client;
using Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework;
using Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Common;
using Microsoft.VisualBasic;
using System.Diagnostics;
using RGiesecke.DllExport;
namespace MyFunctions
{
public interface IMyFunctions
{
string GetWorkItemLinkList(string WIIDs);
}
[CLSCompliant(true), ComVisible(true), ClassInterface(ClassInterfaceType.AutoDual)]
public class MyFunctions : IMyFunctions
{
TfsConfigurationServer server;
WorkItemStore store;
private void TFSconnect()
{
//Code to connect
}
[CLSCompliant(true), ComVisible(true), Description("GetWorkItemLink func")]
public string GetWorkItemLink(int WIID)
{
TFSconnect();
//Code to build return string "message"
return message;
}
[CLSCompliant(true), ComVisible(true), Description("GetWorkItemLinkList func")]
public string GetWorkItemLinkList(string WIIDs)
{
TFSconnect();
//Code to build return string "returnStr"
return returnStr;
}
}
static class UnmanagedExports
{
[DllExport]
[return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.IDispatch)]
static Object CreateDotNetObject()
{
return new MyFunctions();
}
}
}
and the declaration in VBA is as follows:
Private Declare Function CreateDotNetObject Lib "c:\temp\MyFunctions.dll" () As Object
But when I try to instantiate an object, I get the error I mentioned above.
Sub test()
Dim o As Object
Set o = CreateDotNetObject()
End Sub
This is my first time attempting to use custom dll functions in Excel without adding a reference in the VBA. The functions do work if I add a reference (early binding), but the DLL is not going to be propogated to everyone who uses the spreadsheet, and I need it to not crash when they run normal functions.
EDIT: Additional info. I just noticed that in addition to the DLL, when I build the solution in Visual Studio I also get an " Object FileLibrary" and an "Exports Library File". When I register the DLL is there anything I should be doing with either the .exp or .lib?
Thanks,
Mike
I was building the solution with the Platform Target in the class library properties set to "Any PC", which apparently does not allow exports. When I switch it to "x86" it totally works.
